I tried to use MySQL workbench to connect my Hostinger MySQL database from my local desktop. Following the official tutorials, I setup the connection like this:

host: mysql.hostinge.com
database name: uxxxxxx_db
username: uxxxxx_me

but it failed with the error information of unknown host name. 

To fix it, I just changed the host as the IP of mysql.hostinge.com, like 185.28.xxx.xxx. 

I setup the connection on Windows platform, and found the MySQL Workbench 5.2.20 works very well for Hostinger, and both MySQL Workbench 6.3 and MySQL Workbench 5.1.beta crashed when querying the database.
