I would advise to use:
telnet hostname 3306
That's the best way to try :-)

Subject: Re: MyODBC for XP connects Linux MySQL Server
I may be wrong, but it seems that's not an ODBC problem, if you can't
connect because of a permission problem, the server returns another
error regarding user and host permission. Maybe a firewall blocking
the connection. Try connecting using the console, or another
application that has native (not ODBC) support for MySQL (like the
administrator or query browser) using the same user and pass. Check
the versions, if both the local and the remote mysqls are the same
(password format problems).
