A few hours ago, my main filehost was cut-off from MySQL access, when I ran a simple connect script, I got this error:

Could not connect: Host 'infong598.lxa.perfora.net' is blocked because of many connection errors; unblock with 'mysqladmin flush-hosts'

I've tried that in phpmyadmin, but it says I don't have the permission. So I'm guessing I would need to get you guys to do it.

Thanks!

I'm not sure if I can help you with this; I'll bump this thread to the Level Two Support forum so a senior staff member can aid you with this problem.

Set 'localhost' as the MySQL host for your script.

I can't do that as the script is a forum located on a different file server.
Edit:
Don't mean to be pushy sounding, but my file server's host is still blocked. I need a MySQL root admin to query MySQL with "flush hosts" to allow my file server to access the MySQL server again. I'd do it myself, but that command is restricted to me.

I'm sorry, but we do not allow remote MySQL connections. Databases are to be used locally (by a website/script hosted at x10hosting).

Could you show me where this policy is stated? Because I looked at the Terms of Service and found nothing about remote connections being disallowed.

It's blocked by our firewall, it's not stated in our Terms of Service. We run into too many problems with remote database connections.
