hi...
i'm investigating what needs to be done to allow mysql on a server to be
used remotely by client machines. each machine is running iptables. so i'm
wondering what has to be in the iptables for the machine being used as the
mysql server, as well as the client machines that will be
that will be communicating with
the mysql box...
The MySQL standard port is 3306/tcp. So your iptables on the MySQL
server are supposed to allow communication on this port for the clients.
i have rh8.0 and mysql v11.18-dist3.23.54
huh! Either one is quite old. Think about upgrading - it is a security
issue

This is not a mysql question, and please do not cross post.
Any good book un Linux networking will cover this.
Open port 3306.

properly configuring/securing the mysql app is both a linux/mysql issue...
and reading the manual is an admin issue *sigh*... do so...
