Hi,
I have a question concerning the mysqld. I don't like that it's currently offering its services to all interfaces, so I'd like to bind the daemon just to localhost, so it won't be visible anymore inside of a network. I know that there's a commandline parameter capable of for doing this (mysqld --bind-ip=127.0.0.1) but this is quite inconvenient if I want to use the RH specific wrapper (safe_mysqld, kind of a shellskript) as it does not accept this parameter (else I had added it into the initscript). Is there a way to activate the bind feature from /etc/my.cnf ? I believe it should be possible but I haven't found something specific in the manpages.
bye
Ken
