Remote user authentication or validation

Hi,

 

I have a small content management system that I put on clients websites to allow them to log in and update their site easily.

 

I want to have a central database on my own site to hold all clients usernames and password.

 

My question is, Is there a recommend approach to validating clients login credentials from a remote location? At the moment, some sites require special attention to the firewall to allow the local PHP script to communicate with a remote database to validate the user. Can this approach be improved, should I have the users details locally instead? Though this would prevent me from managing users effectively.

 

Thank you for any comments or suggestions.
