Re: [webmin-l] Running mysqld on certain interface?

[Cary R. <ca...@to...>]

Another suggestion. Not that this is the exact same as you were 
wanting to do, but just might give you the same results.
You can set your my.ini file to "--skip-networking". See description 
from man pages below.

  --skip-networking

           Don't listen for TCP/IP connections at all. All 
interaction with mysqld must be made via named pipes or shared
           memory (on Windows) or Unix socket files (on Unix). This 
option is highly recommended for systems where only
           local clients are allowed. See Section 5.6, How MySQL Uses DNS.
