    Connecting to MySQL remotely

    Well, this is not truly a programming question, but it's not either a question for the support area so here it goes

    I have problems accessing my MySQL database remotely, I already set the necessary permissions on "remote mysql database", used the % and also the ip address of my network

    I'm using the IP address 184.154.58.130 but I get ERROR 2003: Can't connect to MySQL server (10060)

    This usually the firewall blocking ports but I disabled it just to make sure - but don't work

    Any ideas?

    The only host for MySQL that will work is localhost, so if you are trying to connect to a MySQL Database on x10hosting remotely, it will not work.

    Remote MySQL is disabled for security reasons on free hosting.

    Well, I suppose it is a host support question after all :P
