I'm trying to do this but always get refused. In virtualmin I added my own IP address under "remote hosts". As "host" value in my PHP connection script I just use the IP address of my Linode.

Should this work in theory?

By default MySQL binds to 127.0.0.1, meaning only local connections are allowed, regardless of what's in your privileges table.

2 other things to check.

1) Make sure you don't have skip-networking set in your /etc/my.cnf
2) Make sure your firewall allows incoming connections to mysql (port 3306)
