securing MySQL: easiest/best ways?
Monkeying with IPv6, I discovered that globally routable addresses are what it says on the tin, so hiding behind a network appliance is not longer viable for me. An nmap scan showed the port 3306 was hanging out for all to see but I couldn't figure out how to close it off. The --skip-networking argument seems not to work, either in my.cnf or as an rc argument. The server just fails to start. (For some reason the socket is hard-coded to live in /tmp, regardless of what's in my.cnf but I gave up bothering about that.) What I ended up doing was adding mysql_args=--bind-address=127.0.0.1 to /etc/rc.conf. This seems to work as netstat and sockstat no longer show port 3306 listening and database connections are happening. Is this the preferred/best way? -- Paul Beard Are you trying to win an argument or solve a problem?
maybe not truly freebsd related
by possibly someone can help. I want to use FreeBSD as timeshared server with some amount of X terminal (basically for free with old computers, netboot, running just Xorg -query and xdm on server). There is usable software that have the commonly required uselessness (called desktop environment) and yet works at tolerable speed and uses tolerable amount of resources - i mean gnome2 there are working and available programs for common needs like abiword, gnumeric, optionally openoffice, gimp, firefox etc.. etc.. But yet - what graphical mail program can you recommend that have such simple basic functionality of local mail support in Maildir format? Just running thunderbird to connect dovecot(imap) over localhost and having duplicated mail indexes (dovecot and thunderbird) isn't something that make sense. i use pine but people like pointclick. if there are none, is there a method to alter password setting in thunderbird using command line tool. just i don't like loggin on over X11 to change password in thunderbird after changing it with passwd. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

You have been restarting mysql to test changes to my.cnf? You have to do a full restart to get mysql to re-read the config file. If you need to reconfigure without interrupting service, you can set most parameters at runtime using mysql(1). Sounds almost as if the my.cnf you've been editing is not the my.cnf that your mysql instance is using. IIRC there was some talk about moving from the usual BSD-ish /var/db/mysql/my.cnf to /usr/local/etc/my.cnf (no doubt under some insidious influence from Linux.) skip-networking certainly should leave you with just the unix domain socket. Alternatively you can bind mysql's network socket to a specific interface -- so if you bind it to the loopback, it should make it inaccessible from the network.

synproxy definition in pfctl -si
Hi, I am looking to track the number of syn packets coming into a system, as the box in question has pf running and using the synproxy attribute on tcp services, I hope to be able to use the synproxy field in pfctl -si. However I cant find a definitive definition of the variable, Ive looking in the source but haven't have much look in finding where it is derived. Can anyone shed any light on if my assumption is valid as without a proper definition of this variable I can't really trust its output is what i think it is. Alternatively if anyone could suggest an another way of tracking inbound syn packets I would be grateful, it must use base os tools though, ie no ports or other apps required.
