can't connect to mysql remote - mysql

Question

I have a client on linux and the mysql server on windows
I wanted to connect to mysql remotely 2 computers can ping each other without any problem in mysql server I set the permission correctly so the specified client is allowed to connect
WIN IP: 192.168.1.2
Linux IP:192.168.1.3
in windows system:
GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'parsa'#'192.168.1.3' IDENTIFIED BY 'parsa';
flush all privileges;
in my linux,in my.cnf I wrote this line in mysqld section
bind-address=192.168.1.2
skip-networking was commented and I didn't change it
I restarted the mysql
when I use
telnet 192.168.1.2 3306
telnet:connect to address 192.168.1.2:Connection timed out
and using this command:
mysql -h 192.168.1.2 -u parsa -p parsa
Error 2003:can't connect to mysql server on 192.168.1.2
The firewalls in both sides are disabled what should I do?

Answer 1

Connection timed out can mean two things:
Your server is too busy to respond
There is a firewall between your client computer and the server which blocks the connection.
To see how busy the server is, use uptime. Load average > 10 means "busy". Load average < 1 means "idle".
If the server is idle, check for the firewall settings on the server, then check the client.
