MySQL remote connections

[Mike Henderson]

Hey everyone.

How would I go about allowing remote connections in MySQL? I did a search on these forums but it didn't come up with anything.

You need to add a user to the mySQL users table with the format username@'%' - that will allow the user to connect to the database server from any IP address.
