Nope, I can connect from local host but not to the external IP.
The only thing that feels like progress is when I use my default gateway IP, it gives an immediate connection error. Otherwise if I use my public IP (i.e. the one you'd see if you type "what's my IP" in google) or an invalid IP (201.201) it times out with a connection error.
Clearly I'm doing something wrong but I'm stumped.. I've added inbound and outbound filewall rules for port 3306 - in fact I've opened my firewall to the point where I'm sitting here paranoid, and the port forwarding is setup as per the rules for the emu server (which works fine).
If someone has this setup for a windows server and could describe the steps they took it would be great
p.s. I reconfigred mysql to make sure it was setup for remote connections (I think all it does is add a firewall rule).
