stick the connection details in database.yml

It should make no difference that the applications are on different systems with different operating systems. The connection settings in the application's config/database.yml is all that matters. The host should be the IP address (or hostname) of the database machine. If you're sure the database is active and you can't connect, check that your database machine's firewall isn't blocking connections on port 3306, which is used by MySQL.
