simple ! you can use $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] to find server name and do connection based on it .


switch($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'])
{
case 'localhost':
  mysqlconnect('localhost', 'user1', 'password1');
  mysql_select_db('db1');
  break;
case 'server1.hostname.com':
  mysqlconnect('mysql.hostname.com', 'root', 'do');
  mysql_select_db('db');
  break;
case 'server2.hostname.com':
  mysqlconnect('mysql.hostname.com', 'root2', 'do');
  mysql_select_db('db2');
  break;
}
