Database Help

[mchybrid]

So I am setting up a Minecraft Bukkit server, and I'm adding the plugin Ban Management (http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/ban-management/)
So I have my database created, and I need to add my database to my config file.
This is what I have done

  host: localhost
  port: 3306
  database: mchybrid_bans
  username: MCHybrid_bans
  password: (my account password)

But I keep getting an error saying "Failure to connect." What am I doing wrong here?

HELPFUL INFO
Database Name: mchybrid_bans
My Account Username: MCHybrid

You would need to use the password that you gave the database user when you created that (
mchybrid_bans), assuming you actually did create a user for the database with that name. If not you should, as using the account username as database user is not recommended.

And also, you're probably connecting from a remote server (if you're running a Minecraft server). This is not possible with Free hosting. You would need premium in order to use remote MySQL.
