1 and 2 are in place, working and readable. Lo makes no difference - I have tried with both, up and down. However, after some more hours of trying I have found a fix in this way: just commented the line (in my.cnf): #bind-address = 127.0.0.1 This makes mysql start and listen: tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:3306 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN I have not yet had time to see if everything works :) but at least it doesn't give errors at startup... -- Palantir === http://www.netpalantir.it icq:57482808 === MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
