You don't need a tunnel, you need port 3306 on your router forwarded to port 3306 on the machine with MySQL running on it.

When you say:

Global Port Range: 7000-7100
Protocal: both
Host Port: 3306

It sounds like you did it wrong.

lerxst2112,

You sir are da man! It was my router port. Thanks so much for your assistance.

Looks like I got it working.
I used MYSQL to create a new user and granted it privileges.
Here are the links I used to do so just in case anyone else is having these problems.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, all.

Creating a new MySQL user
Granting privileges to user

I can't for the life of me get this to work.

I used NaviCat Premium and set up the user as described.
I used gaming rules to open port 3306 (tcp / udp) for my machine (192.168.0.19
I used incoming rules for windows firewall to allow as described.

All info I put in is correct, whats my ip etc. Just won't connect.

user / pw / db etc all checked and accurate.

Using firefox and even tried in IE8. I'm at a loss.

Did you check your ports on your router? Making sure had one open for port 3306. That was my issue.

[Expletus]

Yes sir. Ports are open. Every step has been double checked.

[Expletus]

Windows firewall is showing the rule made as allowing the port and the ip address was added (the step 2).

I removed the router and direct connected and still couldn't get connected to the site. Nothing is blocking the port. I got my public ip address... I just don't know where to look now.

Try making a new database connection in Navicat using your external IP address for the host, and 3306 for the port. If that works, then it should prove that your external access stuff is setup properly and then we might need to look into it further why it isn't working for EOC. I suspect that your external access will not work, which would point to further issues on your end.

Most likely, you are running your server on Windows, and you did not enable remote DB access when you installed MySQL. If that is the case, then you should be able to go through the setup settings again like a new install of MySQL and check the box to allow remote connections when going through the setup.
