What is causing me to have this problem in "mysql  Ver 12.22 Distrib 4.0.24,
for pc-linux-gnu (i686)". I am running shorewall, but that shouldn't affect
localhost should it? My firewall, web, and mySQL server are the same
machine.

# telnet localhost 3306
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

I've tried to comment, uncomment and change to * this 'bind-address' line in
/etc/mysql/my.cnf
# keep secure by default!
#bind-address    = 127.0.0.1
#bind-address    = *
port            = 3306

Of course, I can't connect from any of the other IP addresses that my mySQL
server is assigned either:

# telnet 192.168.1.1 3306
Trying 192.168.1.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused

# telnet 10.10.10.1 3306
Trying 10.10.10.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused


# ifconfig
eth1      Link encap:Ethernet 
          inet addr:192.168.1.1  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
lo        Link encap:Local Loopback  
          inet addr:127.0.0.1  Mask:255.0.0.0
wlan0     Link encap:Ethernet    
          inet addr:10.10.10.1  Bcast:10.255.255.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
