Dear Madam and Sir,
Do you know how to access a MYSQL DB from an external server ?
We read the information and studied :
1) Sir//Aho : The mysql-server machine must have open ports for the
incomming connection
(default 3306). There must be a mysql-user who has the privileged to
connect from the
remote server.
2) http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/linux-iptables-18-allow-mysql-server-incoming-request.html
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 3306 -j ACCEPT
3) http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.net/iptables-tutorial.html
object : iptables
BUT
1) Open ports : We do not know where to exactly insert that, and the
consequences :
iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 3306 -j ACCEPT
2) There is an impact an security and we're very affraid about safety.
3) Changing HTPPD.CONF can lead to a non-access to the server (no SSH
if the implementation failed) with a guy manually reinstalling the
former version.
4) We have a dream of someone in the world having access to our
servers to enhance configuration.
Thanking you very much for your help,
Norm
