You can certainly do that. You just need a user on the mysql box that
will let you connect and the firewall has to be setup to let traffic
in on 3306 (or whatever port your running mysql on).

Teddy one thought though is maybe I run just this application on a shared
server. Do you know if there is a way to access a remote "MySQL" database
(one running on the linux server) with CF? Could an DSN be made on the
shared server that could update the MySQL database which resides on a remote
server on a different network?
I have not worked with MySQL before but something tells me that I think I
remember researching this once and determining it couldn't be done.
Thanks for your previous reply and any suggestions you may have.

Subject: Re: [ACFUG Discuss] Blue Dragon
What about hosting the site on an application service provider? You don't
have to budget for the CF license then. Is the client firm on the fact that
the Linux server must house the site?

I have a new client I need to design a very simple app for and I would
prefer to do it in cold fusion because I could do it fast and not have to
charge much. The problem is that the dedicated server he has is a Linux
server and does not have CF on it.
Of course I know CF will run fine on a linux server but since there is no
budget to purchase a license for it, I assumed I would need to rethink it
and do this with PHP. However, then I though Blue Dragon maybe? Could anyone
tell me if my thoughts are worth researching more? Will Blue Dragon allow me
to develop my app with my local cf server then move to his server where I
install Blue Dragon on it? Do you think I will run into headaches and issues
with this approach.
Thanks ahead of time for any advice I get.
Dusty
