mysqld running and reading for connections on port 3306, no port 3306 found from scan
I'm trien to connect to mysql server remotely. my.cnf file has #skip networking commented out. but when I have mysqld server running. it says its ready for connections through socket..., port =3306. but when i try a port scan for this nothing comes up. why is this? i know i cant remote connect to it if the port doesnt show up with a port scan. what do i have to change for settings to allow this to happen.

From a shell on the server can you telnet to port 3306? Did you pinhole port 3306 in the server's firewall? If you're behind a NAT router, have you port forwarded 3306 to this box?
# telnet localhost 3306 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to localhost (127.0.0.1). Escape character is '^]'. . 4.0.11a-gamma▒|p<wet8Y (The connection times out after a few seconds of no input) |
When i telnet localhost 3306 i get this:
#telnet localhost 3306 trying 127.0.0.1.... telnet: connect to address 127.0.0.1: connection refused I have the servers firewall disabled, because the server itself is behind a firewall with port 3306 open. |
mysqld is running?:
ps -A | grep mysqld You've set a root password and you can use the mysql command to create a database? http://www.yolinux.com/TUTORIALS/Lin...rialMySQL.html |
yes mysqld is running and i can log on to it locally and create databases. But only locally. I need to be able to connect to it remotely
|
I finally got it. Thanks snowbat for your help =D
|
No worries. What was it (as a matter of interest and for the next person who has a similar problem)?
|
My internal fire was disabled, but not bypassed. Had to take it completely out i think it was /etc/SuSEfirewall112. it was also causeing ping problems aswell. so once i found that out it lead me in the right direction.
