[AccessD] Arvixe web hosting - was Free Cloud based MySQL

Robert,

I have databases that I am managing on my own servers using Hamachi.  I would like to get rid of 
this and do it out on the internet.  What I need to know from you is how do you manage more than one 
database?  Using Hamachi I hit an IP address which is literally a number, with that ,1433 at the end.

On my server I have multiple databases, each of which have users set up by me, with passwords etc 
and inside of SQL Server those users can "see" only a single database.  Thus if I come in as UserXYZ 
I can get at DatabaseXYZ and if I come in as UserABC I can only get at DatabaseABC.

I assume that If I go with this company the same methodology is going to work except that the IP 
will now be ColbyConsulting.com,1433?  BTW it is possible to change that default port to another 
port number to help defend against probing of that port.  I am not sure how much it helps.

What CMS do you use for the web side of things?
