godaddy wont alow to connect outside mysql server

You have mysql server running at other host or outside godaddy netwrok and you want to access from your godaddy account .. Opps ! they won;t allow even outgoing connection to port 3306

If you are hosting your own db server then you can chnage mysql port to 80 or 443 becoz godaddy allows only port 80 and 443 to outside world. but  if you ahve with other hosting provider you can;t becoz they won’t chnage port for you.

will godaddy allow remote db connections no ! so bothides way out.. check any other host 🙂
