Remotely connecting to a MySQL database

by

Use the supplied domain name ukld.db.5510597.hostedresource.com

Prepending the hostname with an IP as you are doing only changes the hostname and that is why it is failing to connect.

The hostname will be converted to an IP address behind the scenes for you. No need to do it yourself. Plus, hardcoding IPs is bad practice as they can change over time.
