Accessing remote MySQL database

[Devin Asay]

I have been through the Rev  documentation and the mail list archives, 
but can't find an answer to this one.

I want to access a MySQL database on my OS X server through Revolution. 
I try the revdb_connect() function, passing the server name, the 
database name, the user name and password as parameters. But I get back 
an error message that says "Access denied for user '<my username@<my 
computer's dns name>' (Using password:YES)".

Am I doing this right? Can I access a remote MySQL database in this 
way? The documentation is not specific on this matter. Neither are the 
archives.

Thanks.
