On telnet'ing to localhost using port 3306, the server responds with the version (3.23.52-log) and some encryption data. From a remote machine, I don't even hear back from the MySQL daemon. Now, that doesn't strike me as a good thing. We do not have the firewall enabled, so ipfw shouldn't have an effect. If we replace the 3306 port number with a perl server, I can hear back from it all the time. Can someone please extend a pointer on how to set up the MySQL in BSD so we can see it off-server? Please respond to makosharktooth@netzero.net as I am not a member of this list.
