There are variables in typo3conf/localconf.php:

=====================
$typo_db_username = '...;       // Modified or inserted by TYPO3 Install
Tool.
$typo_db_password = '...'; //  Modified or inserted by TYPO3 Install Tool.
$typo_db_host = 'localhost';    //  Modified or inserted by TYPO3
Install Tool.
$typo_db = '...';   //  Modified or inserted by TYPO3 Install Tool.
=====================

You can define they as 'global' or use $GLOBALS['...'] and reconnect.

Dmitry.
