Hi, I have searched the archives and unfortunately could not find a solution to my problem. I have setup a machine as a mysql server and cannont connect to it remotely. When I try "telnet localhost 3306" all seems ok. When I try "telnet domain.com 3306" I get the message "Connection closed by foreign host", same goes when trying the IP address from the local box. If I try this as well from a remote box, I get "Connection closed by foreign host".
I have setup a user for the remote box and granted all rights to this user, using the IP address of the remote box. I am not sure if the software firewall here is causing some problems or if it is something I am missing with MySQL.
