Hi, I have a situation where I need to keep data on several PCs on a LAN in sync. Any PC may update the data, with suitable locking, which must be pushed out to all the others. It must be possible for a PC to go down and be brought back on line again without impacting the others. The amount of data is not large - say a few thousand items - and the population of PCs is also modest - maybe 50 of them. All will be running some version of Red Hat Linux.
Has anyone worked on something along these lines? One option I have considered is using, say, MySQL with one master node replicating to all the others and some mechanism to elect a new master if the original went down. But, that sounds messy. There must be a neater solution? Bye for now, Chris. -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL: http://www.hantslug.org.uk --------------------------------------------------------------
