Hey all,
I've been working and researching this for about a week now and I still haven't had any luck.
Basically, I have been trying to open port 3306 to allow connections to my MySql server.
i've added the rule into iptables, saved and restarted that
i've added the rule into my router.
and I have removed "skip-networking" from the my.cnf file and added the blind address in, I'm trying to get this all to work on my LAN, but it doesn't seem to work, I've also restarted the entire server and then port scanned it from outside and inside the networking and it still tells me that 3306 is closed.
I did however i had some luck when I entered the Ip of the machine that would be sending data to the server but then PROFTPD stopped working and the port was open :/ im not really sure what ip should be in there but another thread from another forum said to enter the ip of the machine that mysql is installed on.
so currently its 192.168.0.2 which is the static internal address of the server.
every machine on the network has a static ip and all the rules have been added to each firewall, i.e. server and router firewalls.
ill pop my "my.cnf" under this to see if anyone can find a mistake,
Cheers Guys !
