Having just installed mysql on my server, I've found that I have to set |
| 2 |
bind-address = 0.0.0.0 in /etc/mysql/my.cnf to enable me to connect to |
| 3 |
mysqld over the local network: leaving it at the default 127.0.0.1 causes |
| 4 |
connection requests to be rejected. |

|
| 6 |
Is there a more secure value for this parameter? I want to be able to |
| 7 |
connect over either of two network segments, 192.168.2.0/29 and |
| 8 |
192.168.3.0/29, as well as locally on the server box. I've tried a compound |
| 9 |
setting in bind-address, but mysqld then refuses to start. 0.0.0.0 is the |
| 10 |
only setting I've found so far that lets me in. |
