Moving to remote server

OK, I've got it working (enough) on my local testing server and I'm now ready to set up on the remote server. The Getting Started Guide kind of just stops when you've got it running locally, so is there a Guide for moving it to the real world?

In the absence of any instructions (well, anything I could find), I have done the following:
1. Created a new connection file in /Connections/ with my remote database details
2. Changed the <?php require_once('../Connections/ code at the top of relevant files to connect to this new file
3. Imported my database from my local server to the remote one
4. Uploaded all files to the remote server.

Anything I've missed? I'm getting an access denied error for the database when I try to open any of the admin files, but I've got a query in with my hosting helpdesk for that.
