Enabling MySQL on port

[southcot]

I am very much a Linux newbie. I have just installed MySQL on Ubuntu. I want it to be available to my other PCs but I can't seem to get it to listen on port 3306. Can anyone help me achieve this?

Can you post your /etc/mysql/my.cnf file here?

Thanks for the speedy response, file attached as requested.

Comment out the line

bind-address            = 127.0.0.1

so that it reads

#bind-address            = 127.0.0.1

and restart MySQL:

/etc/init.d/mysql restart

Many Many thanks that did the trick.
