How to enable remote access to the database hosted on the droplet

Tried this tutorial for adding IPs but my file at /etc/mysql/my.cnf does not have a section with [mysqld]

# The MySQL database server configuration file.
#
# You can copy this to one of:
# - "/etc/mysql/my.cnf" to set global options,
# - "~/.my.cnf" to set user-specific options.
#
# One can use all long options that the program supports.
# Run program with --help to get a list of available options and with
# --print-defaults to see which it would actually understand and use.
#
# For explanations see
# http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/server-system-variables.html

#
# * IMPORTANT: Additional settings that can override those from this file!
#   The files must end with '.cnf', otherwise they'll be ignored.
#

!includedir /etc/mysql/conf.d/
!includedir /etc/mysql/mysql.conf.d/

where do I add

bind-address        = your_database_IP

and how do I add several IPs?

Thx Mike

Thanks @ryanpq - I’ll follow this tutorial and see how I get on.

This tutorial includes a section on enabling remote connections in MySQL. By default the MySQL service only allows connections from localhost so some configuration changes and a user with permissions to access your databases from a remote host are required.
