You're right. The result from netstat was:

tcp   0   0 127.0.0.1:3306   0.0.0.0:*  LISTEN 2557/mysqld

after changing the bindaddress config in the mysql config as per the docs to free up networking, it then gives this result:

adam@isengard:~$ sudo netstat -napt | grep 3306
tcp   0   0 127.0.1.1:3306    0.0.0.0:*       LISTEN      16473/mysqld
tcp   0   0 127.0.1.1:53067   127.0.1.1:3306  TIME_WAIT   -

which looks weird. But then it's probably just because I don't have much experience in this area. Why has it switched over to 127.0.1.1 ?

Thanks
Adam

Silly thought but - is mysql configured to listen to 127.0.0.1 only? Something like

sudo netstat -napt | grep 3306

ought to show if mysql is listening on 127.0.0.1:3306 or 0.0.0.0:3306.

Just a pointer in the right direction would be helpful - something to put me back on the scent?

Thanks

I have a lan with a gateway machine running an ADSL modem and two NICs with iptables and dnsmasq.

It also runs mysql and tomcat but is currently just a simple gateway, I'm not trying to configure any DMZ or fancier stuff like that.

My problem is that I can access mysql using 'localhost:3306' but I can't access it on the same box when using the machine name e.g. 'isengard:3306' and my guess is that I have mis-configured either dnsmasq or iptables.

I figure that my command "mysql --host=isengard" is probably being resolved as external and then getting blocked by the firewall.

My dnsmasq config file, based on the example config but with comments removed, is:

domain-needed
bogus-priv
filterwin2k
local=/localdomain/
domain=localdomain
dhcp-range=192.168.0.3,192.168.0.254
dhcp-option=option:router,192.168.0.2
dhcp-option=option:mtu,1500

and my resolv.conf file is:

nameserver 194.74.65.68

and I think this is getting continually rewritten by dhcp with the nameserver info from the dhcp server on the modem which gives the outside NIC its internet ip address.

Does this make any sense? Or rather does anyone see where my situation is foobarred?
