Feeling Black

By default Ubuntu 8.04 sets MySQL to listen to local connections only.
This really is an annoying and stupid thing I found in the server (!) version of Ubuntu Hardy Heron.

Here the solution.

Here some thoughts of mine:

• Does a server mantainer need Ubuntu to prevent him from using MySQL for the purpose it has been meant?
• Does someone still use all-in-one machines, equipped with DBMS, appserver, webserver and whatever else (maybe someone like this still exists...)?

I have to admit it: the only OS I saw doing stupid things like this one is... Windows.
