[TriLUG] what could block port=3306?

I would set "bind-address" to 0.0.0.0, so mysql will listen on all
IP's instead of just one (since it's cleaner to keep your external
IP defined in one and only one place, preferably in your DHCP server's
config file).

It *could* be that the IP you're specifying in the my.cnf file on
lane does not actually match the machine's IP, and that would cause
mysql to listen only on the localhost interface.
