Hey everyone,

This is my first post ever on developer.com and I hope my question doesn't seem silly;

Allright, here's my problem: We have a team of about 4 people working on a single project that requires the database; mySQL, being free, was our obvious choice!

Now, all of use pretty much have the same code and work on the same table, so I thought it would be pretty convineant if I can create an open mySQL server that my team members can connect to....

Here is what I have so far...
I created a web server! I am dhcp connected to my ISP and I created a webserver using APPSERV ( apache + mySQL + php) and used the help from the guys at no-ip.com and got a 'url' instead of some kind of weird ip.

I have a wireless router, so I enabled it to transfer all http requests to the appropriate computer on port 80.

What additional stuff do I need to do to connect to sql using a front end (like sqlYog) over the internet?
