Connector/J FAQ and Debian

Hi,

This is a very slight detail indeed but as I read through the Connector/J "Common problems and solutions" section, I stumbled upon this assertion:
Quote

If MySQL has been started with the "--skip-networking" option set (the Debian Linux package of MySQL server does this for example), you need to comment it out in the file /etc/mysql/my.cnf or /etc/my.cnf.

Actually, the default behaviour in the Debian mysql-common package (at least since mysql-dfsg (4.0.23-4), according to the Debian changelog) has changed:
# Instead of skip-networking the default is now to listen only on
# localhost which is more compatible and is not less secure.
bind-address            = 127.0.0.1
Besides this, nice FAQ :)
