Does EasyPHP and MySQL need to be on the same box?

Hi,

Our district just put a php interpretor on the webserver box.  I was wondering if it was possible to install MySQL on a local box inside the LAN, while the moodle scripts where running on the webserver machine itself?

It this possible?

Thanks

Jeremy

Yes, just assign the address of your local box to $CFG->dbhost in config.php. Also make sure that the user that you supply in $CFG->dbuser has access right to your mysql server also from the web server.
