Hey all.
I was wondering if anyone could help me in what i’m doing wrong here.
I want to have a droplet be mysql server for my other droplets. Both droplets are on amsterdam2. both with private networking turned on. one is running ubuntu with lamp on. the other is a fresh ubuntu only with mysql installed. i use SSH key for both servers. i have set my bind-address to my mysql eth1 inet address. When i set bind-adress up to the servers eth0, could i connect from my own pc. both servers can ping each other.
I want the mysql server to only be visible on the private network
Soo. what am i doing wrong here? :)

Forgot that i should probably install a mysql client on the website server.
