Mosquitto comes with a password file generating utility called mosquitto_passwd.

sudo mosquitto_passwd -c /etc/mosquitto/passwd <usr>

Password: < password >

Create a configuration file for Mosquitto pointing to the password file we have just created.

sudo nano /etc/mosquitto/conf.d/default.conf

This will open an empty file. Paste the following into it.

allow_anonymous false
persistence true
password_file /etc/mosquitto/passwd
listener 1883

Save and exit the text editor with "Ctrl+O", "Enter" and "Ctrl+X".

Now restart Mosquitto server.

sudo systemctl restart mosquitto

To enable MariaDB to listen to remote connections, you need to edit your defaults file. To do this, open the console in your MariaDB lxc:

nano /etc/mysql/my.cnf

Un-comment port =3306 Save and exit the editor with "Ctrl+O", "Enter" and "Ctrl+X".

nano /etc/mysql/mariadb.conf.d/50-server.cnf

Comment bind-address = 127.0.0.1 Save and exit the editor with "Ctrl+O", "Enter" and "Ctrl+X".

For new MariaDB installations, the next step is to run the included security script. This script changes some of the less secure default options. We will use it to block remote root logins and to remove unused database users.

Run the security script:

sudo mysql_secure_installation

Enter current password for root (enter for none): enter

Switch to unix_socket authentication [Y/n] y

Change the root password? [Y/n] n

Remove anonymous users? [Y/n] y

Disallow root login remotely? [Y/n] y

Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n] y

Reload privilege tables now? [Y/n] y

We will create a new account called admin with the same capabilities as the root account, but configured for password authentication.

sudo mysql

Prompt will change to MariaDB [(none)]>

Create a new local admin (Change the username and password to match your preferences)

CREATE USER 'admin'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password';

Give local admin root privileges (Change the username and password to match above)

GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'admin'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password' WITH GRANT OPTION;

Now, we'll give the user admin root privileges and password-based access that can connect from anywhere on my local area network (LAN), which has addresses in the subnet 192.168.100.0/24. This is an improvement because opening a MariaDB server up to the Internet and granting access to all hosts is bad practice.. Change the username, password and subnet to match your preferences:

GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'admin'@'192.168.100.%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password' WITH GRANT OPTION;

Flush the privileges to ensure that they are saved and available in the current session:

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Following this, exit the MariaDB shell:

exit

Log in as the new database user you just created:

mysql -u admin -p

Create a new database:

CREATE DATABASE homeassistant;

Following this, exit the MariaDB shell:

exit

⚠️ Reboot the lxc

Checking status.

sudo systemctl status mariadb

Change the recorder: db_url: in your HA configuration.yaml

Example: mysql://admin:password@192.168.100.26:3306/homeassistant?charset=utf8mb4
