Two ways:

1. Setup SSH tunnel and login this way
2. Setup remote access on the mySQL server (might be worth white listing your IP address instead of allowing all access).

I'd vote for option one as it's more secure IMO

I am guessing you have SSH access to your OVH server? Or is this just OVH hosting mysql for you?

What OS are you running?
