mysql connect function details

[Modestas]

Hello,

Replace "localhost" with server where your hosting account is created IP or hostname, for example, box1.host1free.com or 94.249.143.2
Also, add your local IP to access hosts in MySQL Management.

hi Modestas,
i am holding a free account and i don't see any privilege page on phpmyadmin. is it possible for a free account holder to add my local IP to access hosts in MySQL Management.
now i am getting "Could not connect: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it. "

Yes you can add your IP in the access hosts under MySQL Management.
