I have an apache server that I want to pull and send information to a mysql db on another server. I'm not sure how to configure the installation of apache to pull information from the mysql server, I attempted to mount the mysql dir to the apache server that didnt work . Not sure where to go from there. Any help will be appreciated.
Ok, then you don't have to configure Apache, but your PHP application to do this. Normally there's a configuration file where you can specify the database server. You'd use the FQDN or IP address of your MySQL server here. Whether there is such a configuration file depends on your PHP application.
