Remember you need the server where the database is running to accept remote connections (eg 3306 for mysql).
my $mysql_server = 192.168.1.100;
my $mysql_user = "mysqlUser";
my $mysql_password = "mysqlPass";
my $mysql_db = "yourDatabase";
$DBH::conn = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:$mysql_db;$mysql_server",$mysql_u
+ser,$mysql_password,{ PrintError => 1, RaiseError => 0,) || die $DBI:
+:errstr;
return $DBH::conn;
