Actually, that looks pretty normal - I don't do MySQL, but many servers
close the port immediately if you don't send a proper packet. In this
case it did _open_ the port, so it's there and accepting connections.
Mysql must have a command line client. Try it.
For instance, in postgres, I'll use:
# psql database -h localhost
for a local tcp-socket connection to "database" - but you definitely need
it to be trying to connect by TCP, not unix sockets.
