Geez!
That's what's been going on with me in the last 30 minutes. :-))
This message came very handy. I now got the slave and the master running
and sync'ing, with time updates so that both have the same clock. :)
I still don't know one thing:
imagine that I try to insert a number in a field which is PRIMARY KEY.
If there's that number already in the table, would the slave stop
running just because of that?
That would be terrible.
