See that: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Multiple_servers.html http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysqld_multi.html Usually following these steps you can safely run many instances of MySQL on a single box. Please however use the MySQL official binary release on Linux. -- For technical support contracts, goto https://order.mysql.com/?ref=ensita This email is sponsored by Ensita.net http://www.ensita.net/ __ ___ ___ ____ __ / |/ /_ __/ __/ __ \/ / Egor Egorov / /|_/ / // /\ \/ /_/ / /__ [EMAIL PROTECTED] /_/ /_/\_, /___/\___\_\___/ MySQL AB / Ensita.net <___/ www.mysql.com -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
