Hi Johan
If you turn off hostname lookup, then you only can connect to mysql by using the IP
addresses.
This also implies, that all privileges for the mysql databases must be set with IP
addresses.
So you have to change all privilege entries with hostnames before turning hostname lookup
off.
Hope this helps.
