Hi, I tried setting 'bind-address' as an option from ~/.my.cnf: (amit0:~) # cat ~/.my.cnf [mysqld] bind-address 127.0.0.1 (amit0:~) # mysqld 061126 16:08:54 [ERROR] mysqld: unknown option '--bind-address 127.0.0.1'
1. Is 'bind-address' then not an 'option'? 2. As 'bind-address' IS settable via /etc/mysql/my.cnf, I'm wondering what are my options of overriding this locally, per user? 3. Can I both set and unset 'bind-address' by overriding? 4. Are all the configuration params in /etc/mysql/my.cnf like that? 5. Is 'mysqld --verbose' the suggested way to test reading of configuration/option files? If not, what is the recommended procedure? 6. Is there a way to query 'bind-address' via mysql console/mysqladmin?
