Well, the mysql database server needs to be available from the outside, that is have a real ip number and preferably a host-name.

Then instead of using localhost, you use like 'mysql.example.com'.

But inside mysql, there is a database called mysql. In there you need to have a record inside user and host allowing you to access from any host, any host is '%' inside the field.

Then you refresh the admin rights.

I want to create an app that accesses a remote mysql database for authorization. Does anyone have any experience with hosted mysql databases and accessing them remotely? I can communicate locally with a mysql database easily, but I want to know if hosted databses are accesible in the same manner, or do they require php or other scripts?
