Mysql my.cnf limits

[bsasninja]

I´m running mysql 4.1.21 and have this in my /etc/my.conf

set-variable = max_connections=300
set-variable = max_user_connections=100
set-variable = connect_timeout=10
set-variable = wait_timeout=10

I want to add more limits to avoid excesive usage of mysql, I read that there are two commands

max_connections_per_user
max_connections_per_ip

which value should i set to them ?

Thanks

Hello,

open ssh and type :

pico /etc/my.cnf

remove all and add

[mysqld]
max_connections = 400
key_buffer = 16M
myisam_sort_buffer_size = 32M
join_buffer_size = 1M
read_buffer_size = 1M
sort_buffer_size = 2M
table_cache = 1024
thread_cache_size = 286
interactive_timeout = 25
wait_timeout = 1000
connect_timeout = 10
max_allowed_packet = 16M
max_connect_errors = 10
query_cache_limit = 1M
query_cache_size = 16M
query_cache_type = 1
tmp_table_size = 16M
skip-innodb
[mysqld_safe]
open_files_limit = 8192

[mysqldump]
quick
max_allowed_packet = 16M

[myisamchk]
key_buffer = 32M
sort_buffer = 32M
read_buffer = 16M
write_buffer = 16M

[mysqlhotcopy]
interactive-timeout
safe-show-database

Anyone is using this settings at /etc/my.cnf ?

max_connections_per_user =
max_connections_per_ip =

which values should I insert there? This settings works with mysql 4.1.21 ?

Thanks
