[Techtalk] Services on certain interfaces

[k clair]

It is my impression that with most services you can have them bind to 
a specific IP address on the interface... just a matter of figuring out 
how.

According to man mysqld, you can pass mysqld a command line option:
--bind-address=IP
I'm sure there's a line you could put in my.cnf as well...

- Yes.  The "how" part of the answer depends, I think, on whether you

- The only specific advice I can give is for Apache running as a
- standalone server.  In that case, you want to look at the Listen
- directive:
- 	http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/core.html#listen
- 
- You would set the Listen directive to include the IP address
- associated with your internal interface, and voila.  So you would
- have something like this in your httpd.conf:
- 
- Listen 192.168.0.5:80
- 
- Hope that helps at least a little!
