Thanks. I think I'm making progress, but I'm still getting 'Connection
failed'.
. bash-3.2# nmap -p3306 localhost
. Starting Nmap 5.35DC1 (
http://nmap.org ) at 2012-02-12 15:46 GMT
. Nmap scan report for localhost (127.0.0.1)
. Host is up (0.00033s latency).
. rDNS record for 127.0.0.1: localhost.localdomain
. PORT STATE SERVICE
. 3306/tcp closed mysql
. Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.54 seconds
It looks like port 3306 is closed. How do I open it?
