Configuring Remote MySQL Access

To enable remote MySQL access for your database hosted with ServerByt, follow these steps:

  1. Log In to the Control Panel:

    • Access your ServerByt control panel by logging in with your credentials.
  2. Navigate to the Database Package:

    • Go to Manage Hosting and select the hosting package that contains your desired database.
  3. Access Remote MySQL Configuration:

    • Click Options and then Manage to view the hosting package overview.
    • Scroll down to the Web Tools section and click on the Remote MySQL Access icon.
  4. Add Remote Access Host:

    • Under Add Access Host, select the database user you wish to connect to remotely from the dropdown menu.
    • Enter the IP address from which you will be connecting. The current IP address is added automatically, but you can customize it or use % as a wildcard to allow all IP addresses.
    • Click Add Host to save the settings.
  5. Note the Hostname:

    • For remote connections, use mysql.gb.stackcp.com as the hostname, instead of the standard database hostname.
