I haven't messed with DBs before, so I have to be missing something, I guess. I've already created an account and associated that with a database. I found that we're supposed to user localhost as the host address and the rest is below.

MySQL host address: localhost
User name: cPanelUsername_SQLUserName
Password: (obvious XD)
Port: 3306 is there by default
Database(s): cPanelUsername_SQLDBName

It keeps giving an error message:
Error No. 2003
Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

Does DB/DB account creation take a while to go through (shows up fine in cPanel), or is there some other issue?

localhost means locally on the server... that would be the setting for any scripts running on your account. It tells the script that the MySQL server is local(running on the same machine) so it knows where to find it.

We do not allow external connections on free accounts.
