Any sugguestions?

As suggested in the first post, you will most likely need to create a custom user that can access your database table. Recommended installs have 'root' user connections prohibited from the outside world. You will need a user that can access the DB from the outside world such as mentioned in the first post. I also answered your questions regarding IP:Port on the edit on my post before
