1) Is it possible to connect to the db remotely? I'd like to connect from
my box for testing.
No. And as Mohamed Elzubeir once told me, it is not going to be available
(security reasons).
2) Could someone set me up with permissions to do a sqldump when I need to?
Please ask Nadim or Anmar over IRC to give you the 'arabeyes' password (you
should have it already).
And generally I would suggest that you make the testings directly on the
server, under ~yourusername/public_html/ (or something). This would be
quicker and far easier for testing.
Salam,
Youcef.
