Fwd: setting up mysql-server

[Ray <tech13@powerweb.net>]

-- this is a resend, its been over an hour, and the 1st hasn't shown up on 
the list yet. i'm assuming my mail server dropped it --

i seem to be missing part of the setup on this.  i can't remotely connect to
mysqld and it seems to have the TCP port disabled, but the config files seem
to say it should be using the default tcp port.

>a few lines from /etc/mysql/my.cnf

[mysqld]
user            = mysql
pid-file        = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid
socket          = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
port            = 3306

>a few lines from /var/log/mysql.log

/usr/sbin/mysqld, Version: 3.23.49-log, started with:
Tcp port: 0  Unix socket: /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

local connections to the database work just fine.
