Apple XServe and MySql Notes

How to make MySql start on Boot:

Set MYSQL=-YES- in the /etc/hostconfig file.

How to make it so folks other than mysql and Root can run the mysql command:

sh-2.05b# chmod 775 /var/mysql
sh-2.05b# ls -ld .
drwxrwxr-x 10 mysql wheel 340 May 17 16:02 .

How to make it really let you use 3306:

sudo vi /etc/mysqlManager.plist

Change "no" to "yes" and reboot. (10.4.5 xserve and higher)
