    Is there anything preventing me from hosting my asp.net website and using a mysql database on a completely different server? On the other end I know I have to authorize the application server IP. But I am double checking ensure there will be nothing blocking the outbound port to my other server.

    Thanks,
    Patrick

    we do not block outgoing connection. you should have no problem connecting to a remote mysql server from your application.

    You would have to contact the other server administrator to find out the MySQL port; DiscountASP.net would not have that information.

    Though just as a rule of thumb, the default MySQL port is 3306.
