I'm running MySQL 4.0.12-standard on Mac OS X (10.2.4), for local use only. As no-one else needs access to the database, I'm trying to make it as secure as possible... so far I've added skip-name-resolve, skip-networking and safe-user-create into my.cnf. I've also seen bind-ip=127.0.0.1 mentioned a few times as well, but I'm not sure if this is needed if skip-networking is set, or if one over-rides the other?
As you can probably tell, I'm on the new side to this, so any help or advice is appreciated.
TIA!
