By default, MySQL only listens on localhost. If you have configured MySQL to listen for remote connections, happy getting hacked...
However, to solve your issue: - Make sure you can connect to the remote MySQL from the server where you're running Tomcat: mysql -h YOUR_HOST_HERE - u USER -p If that works, come back here, if not: Consult your MySQL manual or read it up right here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/ or ask your questions in your preferred MySQL-mailinglist.
