Title: change on a firewall on gateway server
Post by: Chald on January 12, 2005, 11:03:21 PM

Hi all,
does anyone know how to manage a FW change.

I want to accept mysql on my FW to accept a request on port 3306 tcp and udp from a know IP address on my lan.

I have tried to lok and search on contrib but havent found it and some of the time contrib have been down.

best regards
Christian Hald

It's not the firewall which is blocking access from the LAN - mysql is configured to not listen to the network. You can change that, by doing:

/sbin/e-smith/config setprop mysqld LocalNetworkingOnly no
/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/my.cnf
/etc/rc7.d/S90mysqld restart

mysqld listens only for tcp connections, not udp.
