By default, MySQL doesn’t allow remote connections as it’s bound to localhost or 127.0.0.1.

You’d need to modify MySQL’s configuration from the CLI and find:

bind-address            = 127.0.0.1

and comment it out, so that it looks like:

#bind-address            = 127.0.0.1

and then restart MySQL. If you’re using MariaDB instead of the actual MySQL package, you’d need to modify this file:

/etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf

otherwise the file should be:

/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/50-server.cnf

As for the connection settings, are you using your hostname as the username? Your username should be either root or your sudo user (if you’ve set one up) for the non-database login.

bind-address is my IP address, tried comment it out, still not working.

Can’t find 50-server.cnf
just /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf

Not quite sure what I need to modify in here?

I’m using hostname for network connection (SSH Tunnel), for connection setting username.

On command I’m getting telnet myipaddress 22

Trying myipaddress ...
Connected to myipaddress.
Escape character is '^]'.
SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_7.2p2 Ubuntu-4ubuntu2.1
Connection closed by foreign host.

Does that have somenting to do with not connesting?

And now I’m getting

Communications link failure
