Remote MySQL information?

[silentxp]

So apparently we can add remote MySQL, or at least that is what it says in my cPanel.
I've added my remote host into the database, but how do I actually use the remote host to connect to the database?
I've got my database name, username, and password, I just need it's location.

Really? Why was I allowed to add a Host into the Remote MySQL section?
That seems a little redundant to allow that and then block remote MySQL.

Because cPanel is a third-party proprietary application?

Just to clarify essellar's last response, we aren't able to actually remove the Remote MySQL button from cPanel, but the block is not actually occurring within cPanel - it's occurring at the network firewall, which prevents non-x10-sourced communication with the MySQL server to help ensure security of the data.
