How to assign the localhost a virtual ip address

[dajhorn]

Try this:

1. Create a new TAP interface on the Windows Server computer. You can do this with the SoftEther Client package. (aka "VPN Adapter")

2. Restrict the MySQL service to the TAP interface using the "bind-address" cnf option.

3. Reconfigure the SoftEther server to bridge VPN clients into the TAP interface.

Don't modify the loopback interface or address bindings.
