[Gllug] MySQL & ISPConfig

[Peter Ball]

I'm following the instructions in http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.06
to set up LAMP & ISPconfig on Ubuntu Server 6.06.01
and have run into a blockage.

"We want MySQL to listen on all interfaces, not just localhost, therefore we edit 
/etc/mysql/my.cnf and comment out the line

     bind-address = 127.0.0.1:"

however my /etc/mysql/my.cnf doesn't include this line and apart from comments the only 
lines it contains are:

     [client]
     port     = 3306
     socket   = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

In the output of netstat -tap you should see a line like this:

     tcp 0 0 *:mysql *:*  LISTEN  4997/mysqld

In fact the only reference to mysql is:

     tcp 0 0 localhost.localdo:mysql *:* LISTEN 3604/mysqld

Can someone give me clue on how to fix MySQL so it will listen on all interfaces

Thanks
