    I'm considering buying amember. I downloaded the trial. I have my forum setup on a separate server from my DB. My forum is at IP 10.10.10.27, and my DB is at 10.10.10.34.

    MySQL Host
    Very often 'localhost': 10.10.10.34

    Cannot select database 'amemberdb' (Access denied for user 'USER'@'10.10.10.27' to database 'amember')

    The setup script is looking local for the DB instead of remote. Is this possible?

    No it's not looking into local IP.
    Error means that user 'USER' is not allowed to connect to database server from user's IP address 10.10.10.27
    Check user's permissions in mysql database on 10.10.10.34 server and make sure that user allowed to connect from 10.10.10.27 IP.
