<p><b>New page</b></p><div>MySQL needs to be setup to accept connections from remote machines. This is not the default behaviour on many distros.<br />
<br />
Check the file:<br />
<br />
<pre>/etc/mysql/my.cnf</pre><br />
<br />
and look for the line beginning with:<br />
<br />
<pre>bind-address=</pre><br />
<br />
This should read:<br />
<br />
<pre>bind-address=<IP of FOG Server></pre><br />
<br />
rather than:<br />
<br />
<pre>bind-address=127.0.0.1 or bind-address=localhost</pre><br />
<br />
Remember to restart MySQL if you make changes to this file:<br />
<br />
<pre>sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart</pre></div>Chad-bisd
