Hi Arjen, But iptables is not multiplatform! And these kind of "workarounds" do not really fix the issue.
And if you are a DBA, you rarely touch iptables, which is another layer of "surprises" on a database server? So rather than avoiding to fix it, why not just do it? At least 3 "bug" reports / feature reaquests since 2006 on the Bugs.MySQL.com. ________________________________ From: Arjen Lentz <[email protected]> To: Maria Discuss <[email protected]> Sent: Tue, December 1, 2009 1:19:26 AM Subject: Re: [Maria-discuss] Binding to network addresses Hi Viljo On 01/12/2009, at 5:40 AM, Viljo Hakala wrote: > I am not sure whether this has been discussed. > > MySQL either binds to all network interfaces/addresses > or to only single specified network address. > > Wouldn't this limitation be nice to have fixed in MariaDB, > say I want to bind to 127.0.0.1 and a VIP network address, > maybe management network address, but not to all network > addresses on a server? Would be nice, but with iptables it's fairly easy to do anyway. IPv6 is more interesting IMHO.
