Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system err

    I have recently migrated to a new server with all new OS and mySQL versions.
    I can connect locally but I can't seem to connect remotely even with privs defined to allow it.

    This is the error I am getting:

    Lost connection to MySQL server at 'reading initial communication packet', system error: 113

    There is no firewall blocking the mysql connect attempts. I have SELinux in permissive mode.

    Thanks in advance for any ideas you might have.

    This has been resolved.
    It turned out to be an issue with iptables. Once I enabled the mysql port in iptables it worked.
    Thanks anyways
