dabase one server & php one server

Hi all,

since one of my account using Vb forum very buzy, It makes mysql fail constantly. what I heard we can spilt the load by install database in one server and php file in another one.
great! but is anyone here done that before? if so how to do it ?
please step by step guide me how to establish the "handshake" between 2 server ?
What I did so far is created the acct. where the database located one one server ( let called db_ server) and have all php file, forum file in another server ( called php_server) then from the forum config file, I changed "localhost" point to the db_server IP.
But ..no luck .. it did not work that way .
Anyone have better guideline please help
