Hi,

I want to connect a remote SQL server through an ASP page. But my
webhosting provider told me I need using a proxy server. They said

"While we do not allow remote connections to our database servers, you can
connect to another MySQL server from our hosting accounts. Applications
that need to make outgoing connections will need to be made "proxy aware".
This will require additional coding to varying degrees, depending on the
application. The ip of the proxy server is 65.201.165.130 and
connections will be made on port 3128. Http connections are completely
transparent for making only port 80 connections."

I am not very clear about what he said. unfortunately, he also don't give
me the exmaple code. Anyone can help me so I can connect to the remote sql
server through the proxy server they provide?

many thanks
