Topic: MySQL Server Access

[steidley]

I've been trying to acces my MySQL server by ODBC, Rekall and other apps but I keep getting a refused connection. I tried to find out which port, I was assuming the default of 3306. But telneting to 3306 on all of my servers gets me a refused connection. What am I missing? Is it on a different port?

You need to modify your configuration to connect from a lan client because mysql is set to serve on localhost only by default on sme server.
To do this you must connect in a rootshell on the sme server and enter this 3 command lines

Code: [Select]

[root@sme root]# /sbin/e-smith/db configuration setprop mysqld LocalNetworkingOnly no

[root@sme root]# /sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/my.cnf

[root@sme root]# /sbin/service mysqld restart

and all may work fine

That fixed it! Thank you!
