For instance (and somebody please verify this, as I'm just learning to craft my own iptables rules):
php machine: 192.168.1.100 mysql machine: 192.168.1.101
iptables rule on the mysql machine:
-A RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT -p tcp -m tcp -s 192.168.1.100/32 --dport 3306 --syn -j ACCEPT -A RH-Lokkit-0-50-INPUT -p udp -m udp -s 192.168.1.100/32 --dport 3306 -j ACCEPT
I don't believe you need UDP for anything, so it should only be the first rule. What is the "-m tcp" in there?
As an aside, and since we were on the subject yesterday, just for fun the Shorewall rule is something like (in the form "action from to protocol port"):
ACCEPT loc:192.168.1.100 loc:192.168.1.101 tcp 3306
