Communications link failure The last packet sent successfully to the server was 0 milliseconds ago. The driver has not received any packets from the server. Connect timed out Connect timed out..

I've been using DBeaver Community for several years.

I have several MySQL databases on a LAMP server that I've built using DBeaver.

A few days ago my Windows 11 machine rebooted over night. When I opened DBeaver all my Connection info in the Database Navigator was gone.

Since then I've verified that MySQL is alive and well on the server. I'm able to connect to the server via Putty and run MySQL. I can see all my DBs, query, create users, etc. But I can't connect from my laptop via DBeaver. I'm getting the following message:

Communications link failure

The last packet sent successfully to the server was 0 milliseconds ago. The driver has not received any packets from the server.
Connect timed out

If anyone can help me solve this mystery, I'd be happy to pay you for you time!
