You will not get database access from outside, but you can use  
ssh-tunneling(like I):
ssh -L 2342:sql-mapnik:5432 kolossos at login.toolserver.org
and use the database than as it would be local on port 2342.
Works fine under linux.
Be carefull that the result is never too large.

Greetings Kolossos
