Hey all, I have MySQL running without issue inside a chroot by setting bind_address = 127.0.0.1 in the /etc/my.cnf and then setting the connection setting to 127.0.0.1 in my various scripts. I have two questions:
1) Is it possible in some way to get it so that when people specify "localhost" instead of 127.0.0.1 MySQL still works? I've got a /etc/ hosts file inside the chroot but it doesn't appear to work. Perhaps some sort of iptables forwarding? 2) It would seem to me that this setup would prevent remote MySQL access on port 3306? This is important still. Is it therefore possible to have a chroot environment and still have MySQL function via localhost *and* on port 3306 in some way? If so how? Thanks. _______________________________________________ Peruser mailing list [email protected] http://www.telana.com/mailman/listinfo/peruser
