Did you grant privs to the user on a specific IP?
or did you wildcard?
Code:
GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'Maze'@'localhost';
GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'Maze'@'%';
What does
http://www.yougetsignal.com/tools/open-ports/ say when you test 3306 to your external IP?
Take a screen capture of your port forward screen on your router.
Make sure the router firewall has pass-through on 3306.
Forward port 3389 to your server host and see if you can check ports on 3389, or simply RDP(Remote Desktop Protocol) to the machine from an outside device (Tablet, cell phone, etc)
If it is a Linux machine, forward port 22, and test SSH using your preferred client (putty for beginners)
Add a firewall exception for 3306, stop mysqld/mysql, telnet from a local machine to the server using port 3306
Code:
telnet 192.168.10.268 3306
If this works, your server's firewall is not the issue for incoming connections.
I mean, troubleshooting a network based issue is difficult when you don't know the user's environment.
