Starting monetdb for remote connections

I am trying to open monetdb server for remote connections. I understand that by default server only allows connections from localhost. By setting mapi_open=true, mserver5 allows remote connections. The server is started using the daemon monetdbd. Setting monetdbd set mapi_open=true, doesnt work/pass property to mserver5. In merovingian.log I can see after starting server ( via monetdbd start /path/to/dbfarm) that mserver5 entry with mapi_open=false. How to pass mapi_open=true to mserver5?

I tried creating .monetdbd.conf in mydbfram, restarted the daemon, but it didnt help. The default port (50000) is open. And I am trying to connect via mclient. Any suggestions/pointers? Thanks in advance for your help. Regards

p.s server is running on CentOS version 7

Which MonetDB version is this? There has been a change in the development version. To open the database port to allow external connections, you need to change a configuration flag in a stopped monetdbd:

monetdbd set listenaddr=0.0.0.0 <dbfarm>

Where <dbfarm> is the path to your database.
