I do remember that you have to be sure that the port is open on each end of the connection, on the web server and the game server.

also there is a test file you can run under web upload its sb_debug_connection.php just open it and put your info in there and then run it in the browser. Also be sure you enable remote connection for the db via cpanel.
WOW, its all coming back to me now
