we had the same problem. We had mysql and BIND running on single server. Upgrading BIND helped to solve this problem.

After a day of database testing and debug researching I used the --skip-name-resolve in the startup script because we noted that auth wasn't even having time to get checked on the connection. We needed to start looking before auth. This new cmd option allows the server to run. No system changes have occured, no hardware crashes. It is all very bizare to us. > > >How-To-Repeat: > To reintroduce the problem take out --skip-name-resolve and connect remotely. > >Fix: > Add --skip-name-resolve to the startup script. > > >Submitter-Id: <submitter ID> > >Originator: Andy Ciordia > >Organization: > Planned Giving Design Center > >MySQL support: none > >Synopsis: Mysqld crashing on DNS lookup > >Severity: serious > >Priority: medium > >Category: mysql > >Class: > >Release: mysql-3.23.49 (Source distribution) > >Server: /usr/bin/mysqladmin Ver 8.23 Distrib 3.23.49, for redhat-linux-gnu on i386 > Copyright (C) 2000 MySQL AB & MySQL Finland AB & TCX DataKonsult AB > This software comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.
