If you just created your user accounts, you may need to do a 'flush privileges' for them to take effect.

Are you sure your fw is off? To confirm, you could try 'telnet 192.168.x.x 3306' from your client machine.

Make sure that there is no firewall blocking access to MySQL. More information on this issue is here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/...to-server.html
