Title: SQL db host
Post by: Zinan on January 28, 2007, 04:35:19 AM
I have been working with mysql 5.0 and administrator for awhile now which is all ran on db host "localhost". What I am trying to do is, how would I make it like retrievable through my webpages? For example: Freepgs has "mysql5.freepgs.com" as one of their db hosts. How do I do something like that? I am quite new to mysql and dont know how it works. Any help would be awesome.

You would just point to the name of the server or the ip of the server with mysql installed or point a domain to the server like "mysql5.freepgs.com"

I see, I've tried that but it seems to very slow, is there some kind of setting in the mysql admin or mysql server to make it allow connections or make it act like a server that lets connections from outside?
