godaddy wont alow to connect outside mysql server

without comments

You have mysql server running at other host or outside godaddy netwrok and you want to access from your godaddy account .. Opps ! they won;t allow even outgoing connection to port 3306

If you are hosting your own db server then you can chnage mysql port to 80 or 443 becoz godaddy allows only port 80 and 443 to outside world. but  if you ahve with other hosting provider you can;t becoz they won’t chnage port for you.

will godaddy allow remote db connections no ! so bothides way out.. check any other host :)

i got one mail from india about recent bomb blasts …

Dear Terrorist,

We don’t know whether you are Hindu / Muslim / Christian / Indian / pakistani/ Afghanistani / Iraqi / American or from any part of the world but only name we can give you is terrorist.

Even if you are not reading this we don’t care. Time and again you tried to
disturb us and disrupt our life - killing innocent civilians by planting
bombs in trains, buses and cars. You have tried hard to bring death and
destruction, cause panic and fear and create communal disharmony but
everytime you were disgustingly unsuccessful. Do you know how we pass our
life in Mumbai? How much it takes for us to earn that single rupee? If you
wanted to give us a shock then we are sorry to say that you failed
miserably in your ulterior motives. Better look elsewere, not here.

We are not Hindus and Muslims or Gujaratis and Marathis or Punjabis and
Bengaliies. Nor do we distinguish ourselves as owners or workers, govt.
employees or private employees. WE ARE MUMBAIKERS (Bombay-ites, if you

like). We will not allow you to disrupt our life like this. On the last few
occassions when you struck (including the 7 deadly blasts in a single day
killing over 250 people and injuring 500+ in 1993), we went to work next
day in full strength. This time we cleared everything within a few hours
and were back to normal - the vendors placing their next order, businessmen
finalizing the next deals and the office workers rushing to catch the next
train. (Yes the same train you targetted)


Fathom this: Within 3 hours of the blasts, long queues of blood donating
volunteers were seen outside various hospital, where most of the injured
were admitted. By
12 midnight, the hospital had to issue a notification
that blood banks were full and they didn’t require any more blood. The next
day, attendance at schools and office was close to 100%, trains & buses
were packed to the brim, the crowds were back.
The city has simply dusted itself off and moved one - perhaps with greater
vigour.

We are Mumbaikers and we live like brothers in times like this. So, do not
dare to threaten us with your crackers. The spirit of Mumbai is very strong
and can not be harmed.

Please forward this to others. U never know, by chance it may come to hands
of a terrorist & He / She can then read this message which is specially meant for him / her !!!

With Love,
From the people of Mumbai (
Bombay)
