Hello
Yes, remote connexions to the databases is allowed, see this article:
http://hostpapasupport.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=78We allow up to 15 simultaneous connections per MySQL user, and up to 150 simultaneous connections per server.
Fifteen connections are more than enough for most sites. Most connections are only open a fraction of a second, so 15 simultaneous connections is usually sufficient, even for a forum (for example) with hundreds of members.
Thank you
