Hi James,
Sort of. If I run the command manually, it does.
But my script uses su to run the server as an unprivileged user.
What happens if you:
su -m mysql -c 'sh -c "/usr/local/bin/mysqld_safe
--defaults-extra-file=/var/db/mysql/my.cnf --user=mysql --datadir=/var/db/mysql
--pid-file=/va

Hi,
Thank you very much! I'm willing to help test if you can provide me a diff
of your changes.
Well, that was easy. I checked the code, and it turns out that the
functionality is already there. I just tested it on my laptop (running
5.0.13) and it does indeed work.
I did:

Hi James,
I would like to be able to bind to a host name, rather than
an IP number. IP numbers come and go, and are beyond the
control of anyone who doesn't have their own direct allocation.
But since I own my domain, a host name is more permanent.
Adding this functionality is fairly trivia

Oh, no. I know about etc/hosts (even Windoze boxes has one). It's just

at least one socket. Again, it's a cart and horse thing. You see, the

Yes, there is a very good, not so technical reason to only allow binding
by IP Address. Have you ever heard of "putting the cart before the horse"
?
If binding by hostname were allowed, that would mean that every time your
MySQL server started up, it would need to somehow resolve that name int

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I am aware of that, as stated in
my question.
Wouldn't it be an improvement if
It doesn't allow to bind to a hostname. According to
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/server-options.html
you have to specify an IP address, not a hostname.

I would like to be able to bind to a host name, rather than
an IP number. IP numbers come and go, and are beyond the
control of anyone who doesn't have their own direct allocation.
But since I own my domain, a host name is more permanent.
When the time comes to change IP numbers, I want to just
