That looks about right, assuming your MySQL database is stored on the machine named "www.myHost.com" – the hostname should be the name of the server hosting your MySQL database. Also ensure that you have permission to access MySQL remotely and that there are no firewalls in the way between Matrix and the MySQL server.
