Set up MySQL in chrooted environment correctly. If you want real example for
production system, look into
rsync://linuxteam.iplabs.ru::MandrakeRE/Sysiphus/SRPMS
Files which are interest for us:
chrooted-0.1-ipl5.src.rpm
MySQL-3.23.33-ipl3mdk.src.rpm
You don't need to run MySQL client in chrooted environment, only MySQL
server.

1. Look into MySQL documentation, there is statement: 'if you connect to
mysqld using TCP/IP rather than using Unix sockets, the result is 7.5%
slower on the same computer.
2. If you still want to run MySQL connection through TCP/IP, make sure
that your mysqld binary starts without --skip-networking option.
3. Recompile Midgard library and pass the following statement
in CFLAGS to configure along others:
-DMGD_MYSQL_HOST=\"your-host-name\"
Note that 'your-host-name' MUST be different from localhost!!!
