Can't connect to Remote MySQL Server (10061) to Ubuntu

STEP 1:
To allow remote access to MySQL, you have to comment out bind-address (you did) and skip-networking in the configuration file.
Next, you have to make sure the user is allowed remote access. Check your user with this:
SELECT User, Host FROM mysql.user;
If your user here has '127.0.0.1' or 'localhost' listed as host, you don't have remote access.
Change this with:
UPDATE mysql.user SET HOST='%' WHERE User='__here_your_username';
Flush privileges:
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
The '%' is a wildcard for 'all hosts'.
STEP 2:
To Allow remote access to MySQL installed on a Ubuntu, you will have to access the file at this location:
/etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/mysqld.cnf
There, you comment out the following line: bind-address = 127.0.0.1
basically to change: bind-address = 127.0.0.1 to: #bind-address = 127.0.0.1
Now you either restart the computer or just the mySQL service using the follwing command: sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart
service mysql status
service mysql start
service mysql stop
service mysql restart
