Remote MySQL login in linux

This article mainly introduces the actual solution for implementing remote MySQL login in linux. The specific solution includes the table change method, authorization method, and other related solutions, the following is a detailed description of the article. I hope you will get something after reading it.

1. ALTER TABLE

It may be that your account is not allowed to log on remotely, but only on localhost. At this time, you only need to log in to MySQL on the computer of localhost, and change the "host" entry in the "user" table in the "MySQL" database to "%" from "localhost"

 
 

  
  
MySQL -u root -p123  
  
  
MySQL>use MySQL;  
  
  
MySQL>update user set host = '%' where user = 'root';  
  
  
MySQL>select host, user from user; 
 
 

2. Authorization Law

For example, if you want kevin to use mypassword to connect to the MySQL server from any host.

 
 

  
  
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'kevin'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'mypassword' WITH GRANT OPTION; 
 
 

If you want to allow user kevin to connect to the MySQL server from a host with ip address 192.168.101.234, and use mypassword as the password

 
 

  
  
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'kevin'@'192.168.101.234' IDENTIFIED BY 'mypassword' WITH GRANT OPTION; 
 
 

3. The last Method

If this is the case, it will not work. (generally, it will work in windows) modify the following configuration file. (in linux, you can find the corresponding configuration file under your MySQL installation directory)

 
 

  
  
vi /etc/MySQL/my.cnf 
 
 

Comment out

 
 

  
  
#bind-address = 127.0.0.1
