      If it is shared server, they may not allow it. The mysql server has to be setup to allow it as well. Here is an article on how it is setup on the server side:

          1and1 sucks, personally. I've used them in the past and they were horrible. The biggest problem with remote database hosting is that it can cause security issues on shared servers.
          'cuz you're too busy dealing with other stuff to mess around with bad hosting!
          Prices start at $2.99 for shared hosting, $80 for managed dedicated!
