Add --skip-networking to your my.cnf file or pass it on the command line to
safe_mysqld. This will stop ALL TCP connections to mySQL, so you'll have
to use the server name "localhost" in your connection strings to force use
of the unix socket. If your installation requires MIT-threads, this is not
an option.

I'm new to MySQL, this may be a simple question;
How do I turn off listen on port 3306?, I don't want to serve MySQL on the
net, I only need it for local
(server side) access.
Can someone point to docs or notes dealing with this issue.
thanks,
Gus Constan
