If you're concerned with data sniffing in transit, you might also
consider one of the following:
- tunnelling your client connections through SSH
- MySQL-4.x supports SSL connections with x.509 certificates

mostly when you put up a mysql server you need it for building dynamic
pages with php let's say. So when you do such thing you only need to
allow connections from localhost because connection is made from
server-side. If this doesn't apply to you then you should check out stunnel.
