Re: SSH tunnels and non root accounts get "the server service or the configuration file could not be found"

2013-05-28 Thread Tim Pownall
If you are tunneling port 3306 to your local machine, you need to have
mysql listen on the local port.

what ever port is being used on your local computer to operate the tunnel
to port 3306 remotely is the port you will use for mysql locally.

I hope this makes sense!

Re: MySQL dying?

2012-12-04 Thread Tim Pownall
Mysql is used by just about every web host and is one of the most common
database servers around the world. I do not have any intent to stop using
mysql unless they start charging for it which I do not think will happen.

Re: How to block SELECT * FROM table; but not SELECT * FROMT table WHERE...;

2012-09-23 Thread Tim Pownall
 select * from table where column=value means it will return only rows that
match.  as long as you have proper indexing there should not be any issues.
