Are you saying that the program you have written is trying to access a mysql server database?

A mysql client can access a remote mysql database as long as 1) MySQL is listening on port 3306 for non-localhost IP addresses and 2) MySQL has correct permissions for the user@* account that is trying to log into the database.

Is this what you are trying to do?
