Package: mysql-server Version: 4.0.23-1 Severity: important README.Debian contains a subheading entitled "Networking". This subheading purports to described the steps needed to enable connexions from other nodes. However it fails to mention that mysqld has been compiled with libwrap support and therefor one must add a "mysqld" entry to /etc/hosts.allow.
It is my understanding that the purpose of README.Debian is to convey just this sort of information. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.18-1-k7 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages mysql-server depends on: ii adduser 3.59 Add and remove users and groups ii debconf 1.4.30 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-16 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libdbi-perl 1.45-1 The Perl5 Database Interface by Ti ii libmysqlclient12 4.0.23-1 mysql database client library ii libstdc++5 1:3.3.4-6sarge1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libwrap0 7.6.dbs-5 Wietse Venema's TCP wrappers libra ii mailx 1:8.1.2-0.20040524cvs-1 A simple mail user agent ii mysql-client 4.0.23-1 mysql database client binaries ii mysql-common 4.0.23-1 mysql database common files (e.g. ii passwd 1:4.0.3-30 Change and administer password and ii perl 5.8.4-5 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii psmisc 21.5-1 Utilities that use the proc filesy ii zlib1g 1:1.2.1.1-5 compression library - runtime -- debconf information: mysql-server/nis_warning: mysql-server/really_downgrade_from_41: false mysql-server/mysql_update_hints1: * mysql-server/start_on_boot: true mysql-server/postrm_remove_databases: false * mysql-server/mysql_install_db_notes: -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
