Im running mysql on a Freebsd 4.9.. In going through my logs this morning I saw this error. I find it odd that mysqd would try to open the /etc/hosts.allow file .. this makes me think that someone issued the command through mysql .with that in mind.

1. Is there a way to get mysqld to log to a specific file ?

2. Does the below error mean that someone tried to access these files via mysql commands ?

Feb 25 13:44:14 xxx mysqld[175]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 59: cannot open /etc/hosts.allow: Permission denied Feb 25 13:44:14 xxx mysqld[175]: warning: /etc/hosts.allow, line 59: cannot open /etc/hosts.deny: Permission denied

That is possible.

But this list is dedicated to the repeatable test case, and yours is not.

This is not a forum for a free support.
