Connecting to mysql server remotely

hi, I m using an applet as a client to interact to a database which is present on a faraway machine(remote access) and i want to establish a connection via internet to the server(where MySQL is running).Now since i m using J/coonector for MySQL 4.1 database so can any one tell me that wheather J/connector files will be needed on the client side(i.e on the web directory) and if yes what will be the url,.getconnection() parameters for accessing the database.

i will be glad if someone can illustrate with an example.

Cheers
