Because all of my attempts, whether with MyODBC or with the database program itself, have failed.

you have to define a user @ a remote host using this command:

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/...ing-users.html

lets say, you want to grant user eqemu access from the host "www.remotehost.com", you would use the GRANT command to allow that. otherwise, the dbms will only authorize localhost connections.
