MariaDB not allowing remote connections

Question

As the screenshots show, I have the accounts setup to allow remote connections but as shown in the second screenshot I still cannot connect remotely.

Answer 1

Mysql by default binds to 0.0.0.0 which is all interfaces on your system. Which means you can already connect from another computer. The issue is perhaps permissions. You can enable remote connections by running the following command:

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'root'@'192.168.%' IDENTIFIED BY '' WITH GRANT OPTION;
