Hello,
I need alil help.. I'm trying to figure out how i can connect to a different mysql server i'm not sure how the address should be typed.

$dbc = mysql_connect ("localhost", "username ", "password") or die ('I cannot connect to the database because: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db ("databasename");

i'm trying to synchronize all my databases into 1 central database. but i'm not sure on how to type the address domain.mysql.com or mysql.domain.com neither of them work for me

Thank U. :ph34r:

And the server has to be set up to allow connections from outside, whether from everywhere, from your machine, or from a block of IPs. Many are not or you have to request it.

Well I have my own dedicated server so i know i allow outside connections to the mysql server.

I'm just trying to figure what address to type in mysql_connection

Figured out how to connect to a mysql database remotely.

Quite tricky..
