That sure sounds like wrappers -- I would consider adding an: ALL: ALL@ALL for temporary testing -- smaller for just the IP of the client host if you can -- in /etc/hosts.allow -- it looks as though your hosts are at: 193.197.10.99 and 217.67.231.219 from the bug you mention. reverse DNS is not working for one end: [herrold@oldnews ian]$ host 217.67.231.219 Host 219.231.67.217.in-addr.arpa not found: 3(NXDOMAIN) [herrold@oldnews ian]$ host 193.197.10.99 99.10.197.193.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer gonzo.dicp.de. [herrold@oldnews ian]$ I would mention that in RH 7.3, the new glibc patch ending -40 and MySQL do not get along: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=75297 even with connections from the localhost (127.0.0.1) -- Russ Herrold
