NAME
mysql_secure_installation - improve MySQL installation security SYNOPSIS
mysql_secure_installation DESCRIPTION
This program enables you to improve the security of your MySQL installation in the following ways: o You can set a password for root accounts. o You can remove root accounts that are accessible from outside the local host. o You can remove anonymous-user accounts. o You can remove the test database (which by default can be accessed by all users, even anonymous users), and privileges that permit anyone to access databases with names that start with test_. mysql_secure_installation helps you implement security recommendations similar to those described at Section 2.10.2, "Securing the Initial MySQL Accounts". Invoke mysql_secure_installation without arguments: shell> mysql_secure_installation When executed, the script prompts you to determine which actions to perform. COPYRIGHT

NAME
msql2mysql - convert mSQL programs for use with MySQL SYNOPSIS
msql2mysqlC-source-file ... DESCRIPTION
Initially, the MySQL C API was developed to be very similar to that for the mSQL database system. Because of this, mSQL programs often can be converted relatively easily for use with MySQL by changing the names of the C API functions. The msql2mysql utility performs the conversion of mSQL C API function calls to their MySQL equivalents. msql2mysql converts the input file in place, so make a copy of the original before converting it. For example, use msql2mysql like this: shell> cp client-prog.c client-prog.c.orig shell> msql2mysql client-prog.c client-prog.c converted Then examine client-prog.c and make any post-conversion revisions that may be necessary. msql2mysql uses the replace utility to make the function name substitutions. See replace(1). COPYRIGHT
