Package: mysql-server-4.1 Version: 4.1.11-3 Hello. I'm seeing something strange with mysql-server-4.1:
# grep bind-address /etc/mysql/my.cnf bind-address = localhost # /etc/init.d/mysql restart # netstat -tpln|grep mysql tcp 0 0 1.2.3.4:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 24002/mysqld (1.2.3.4 is my public ip) This is worrying, because the config file says: "Instead of skip-networking the default is now to listen only on localhost which is more compatible and is _not less secure._" But it is less secure, because it's listening on my public ip address, and I don't want that.
