[Cialug] mysql security questions

[Dave Weis]

For 1 you would put your database server on a separate logical network that isn't reachable from outside and use password security to lock down access to the db. 

For 2 the db server doesn't need to know about the clients. The clients need to know the ip, username, and password for the database. Put that in your config files for the servers that are spun up and you should be fine.
