However, I belive that the server side already has its own connect.php and it should be configured to work server side already.

Correct, but just in case the 'server-side' connect.php gets overwritten with the 'local' connect.php, all you need to do is make sure that the following in connect.php matches whatever database you are using:

    define('PHPDIG_DB_PREFIX','<dbprefix>');
    define('PHPDIG_DB_HOST','<host>');
    define('PHPDIG_DB_USER','<user>');
    define('PHPDIG_DB_PASS','<pass>');
    define('PHPDIG_DB_NAME','<database>');

Example:

    define('PHPDIG_DB_PREFIX','phpdig_');
    define('PHPDIG_DB_HOST','localhost');
    define('PHPDIG_DB_USER','username');
    define('PHPDIG_DB_PASS','password');
    define('PHPDIG_DB_NAME','database');
