Database Access

I am looking for any information that will help me create a database on a virtual domain account that can be accessed from outside that domain. At a dns other than localhost. Is this possible? If so, how do I accomplish this?

Thanks in advance
 
mbopp,

In order to give access to your db from outside local host you have to add a user with priviledges from out side localhost. When adding the user you can give access to % (any outside address), but I would suggest adding a specific IP or domain name for better security. The mysql syntax for adding the priviledged user can be found here: http://sunsite.mff.cuni.cz/MIRRORS/ftp.mysql.com/doc/en/Adding_users.html

you can also use phpmyadmin, if you download it to one of your domains and connect as the admin user.
