Server op has to have your external IP. Once he has that he goes into cmd

cd \mysql\bin

mysql -u root mysql

grant all privileges on *.* to username@externalip identified by 'password' with grant option;

Then the person has access to the database.

Also, once the ServerOp grants you permission, you need to connect to the database using the external IP of the MySQL server. If a domain name (foo.com) is setup that will work just the same and may be the way to go if the server you connect to has a dynamic IP.
