| R: | To access a database on our server from a remote location 
(eg when using a database management application on your 
home computer) you need to do two things: 
1. Connect properly 
Setup the software to connect to our full server hostname 
(see welcome email for your server hostname) or your 
domain name using the port 3306. 
2. Allow permission 
Before a connection can be established you must allow access 
to the database from the IP address / hostname which your 
home computer (or the computer accessing the database 
remotely) uses. To find this out please click here. When you 
have found this, add it to the access list in the MySQL section 
of the account cPanel on our server.
