Mysql on a separate server from webserver
I have written previous websites where I used perl or PHP to access a Mysql DB wen bith the webserver and the Mysql db are on the same server. My questions is how different is it to access or connect to the Mysql database when the database is on a separate server(machine)? Thanks, Nestor A.

My questions is how different is it to access or connect to the Mysql database when the database is on a separate server(machine)? Juste modify the DBI args in you .pl file to set IP of the mysql server. That was 127.0.0.1 or locahost when you are on the same server. Other thing, verify that -skip-networking is not 'ON' in the mysql config if you wish to allow network connection ...

RE: Mysql on a separate server from webserver
Something like this: $site::dbName= 'DBI:mysql:test:10.10.2.20'; for a database called test on 10.10.2.20 Then add the user for the web machine (assuming it's 10.10.2.10) to the authorized list: Grant select on test.* to [EMAIL PROTECTED] identified by 'password'; Flush privileges; Everything else is exactly the same (and I find it works much better and is obviously more secure). -Original Message- From: Nestor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, August 29, 2002 3:09 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Mysql on a separate server from webserver I have written previous websites where I used perl or PHP to access a Mysql DB wen bith the webserver and the Mysql db are on the same server.
