Hi All I am unable to find an answer on what the bind-address in mysql-5.1 actually does.
From the config file it says that it provides the same function as the previous skip-networking function. However, let's say I configure the bind-adress value to the IP of the machine, will this cause any issues with applications connecting to the database from various other machines? My reason for looking into this is because currently we are experiencing intermittend connection problems (error 2013) but I have not been able to pinpoint the issue and was wondering if this is not perhaps the issue. Thank you in advance for all responses Regards Machiel
