 A.2.5 `Host 'HOST_NAME' is blocked'
 -----------------------------------
 
 If you get the following error, it means that `mysqld' has received many
 connect requests from the host `'HOST_NAME'' that have been interrupted
 in the middle:
 
      Host 'HOST_NAME' is blocked because of many connection errors.
      Unblock with 'mysqladmin flush-hosts'
 
 The number of interrupted connect requests allowed is determined by the
 value of the `max_connect_errors' system variable.  After
 `max_connect_errors' failed requests, `mysqld' assumes that something
 is wrong (for example, that someone is trying to break in), and blocks
 the host from further connections until you execute a `mysqladmin
 flush-hosts' command or issue a `FLUSH HOSTS' statement.   Server
 system variables.
 
 By default, `mysqld' blocks a host after 10 connection errors.  You can
 adjust the value by starting the server like this:
 
      shell> mysqld_safe --max_connect_errors=10000 &
 
 If you get this error message for a given host, you should first verify
 that there isn't anything wrong with TCP/IP connections from that host.
 If you are having network problems, it will do you no good to increase
 the value of the `max_connect_errors' variable.
