The urgent things you need to do is to "harden" your mysql setup. Please find below my "policy" when I setup a mysql server (taken from various document/article I found "googling" and put together)
Hi gaël, Thanks much! I'm in the process of 'hardening' mysql and a number of other key elements in the setup. After re-evaluating this undertaking, I've decided to attempt to harden my brain, also, with a few books on the topics of MySQL, Apache and Server Security even though it will cut into my Pysol and LBreakout2 time. :> Setting up an HTML server with MySQL & PHP isn't the trivial point and click task that I thought it would be. One of the most important things I've learned is that it's critical to know what the hell you're doing! ;> And I don't. Thanks again, Ken
