Oddly on my grid, I used ExternalHostName = ryukyu.dnsdojo.com
It seems to work just fine. I have 10 test users, one of which calls 
very often from Australia, and she connects just fine.
Remeber not to use the Http:// only the rest, and no port number on that 
line.

I have never run a secondary machine to access the mysql database, so I 
don't know how that effects that.
