Prevent a Remote Server From Accessing Your Databases

Databases in cPanel can be accessed remotely, by other web servers. This can be useful if you wish to allow applications such as shopping carts or guestbooks on your other servers to access the databases.

To disallow a host from accessing databases on your server:

1. Click the X icon next to the host’s name or IP address.
2. If you are sure you wish to prevent the server from accessing your databases, click Yes.
