I've written a packaged application for a friend of mine, and she'll be using my mysql database to connect to to run all her php against...
This is the first attempt at a remote mysqld connection, and it looks like the tcpwrappers are being gay.
I start mysql like this in FreeBSD:
/bin/sh /usr/local/bin/safe_mysqld --user=mysql
which calls
/usr/local/libexec/mysqld --basedir=/usr/local --datadir=/var/db/mysql -- user=mysql --pid-file=/var....
When i try to set up a properly configured user to connect, I get this in the browser:
Warning: Lost connection to MySQL server during query in...
and in the logs:
mysqld[310]: error: /etc/hosts.allow, line 80: twist option in resident process
where line 80 is the twist call that supposedly protects the other services. So how do I configure the tcpwrappers to allow connections to mysqld?
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
