Re: Unauthenticated user issues?

I'm having this problem as well, and I've tracked it down to the fact that I'm using a hardware load balancer. I have two servers which are replication slaves, with a hardware load balancer on top. The load balancer pings constantly to make sure that the slaves are alive. Unfortunately, this has the above-mentioned effect of creating an unlimited number of "unauthenticated users trying to log in".

Adding a line in /etc/hosts solved the problem (yay!).

192.168.0.5 loadbalancer

I'd assume that --skip-name-resolve also fixes things.
