I have MySQL configured locally on my server. No remote connections. However, it is 'Writing to net' -- any idea how I can figure out what is going on? I'm on CloudLinux 7 running MariaDB 10.1. Thanks!
10583 abc localhost xxx Query 0 Writing to net SELECT option_name, option_value FROM wp_options WHERE autoload = 'yes' 0.000
For everyone that may run across this in the future -- this does NOT necessarily mean MYSQL is connecting externally. If you are considered about MYSQL connecting externally and you ONLY use MYSQL locally on your server, add skip-networking- to
/etc/my.cnf` and restart MYSQL. That will prevent any external connections to MYSQL.
