Following up on this entry, here are some more best practices to secure MySQL in a production environment.

But before moving forward, let me pay credit to Lenz Grimmer who helped me to put this information together.

After setting a password for the MySQL root account and removing the test database and anonymous account you can also limit the remote access to MySQL to a specific host. You do this by setting the bind-address attribute in the /etc/mysql/my.cnf file to the host ip-address:

bind-address=ip-address

If you uncomment skip-networking in my.cnf MySQL only …
