Putting system configuration information on a unix machine in /var.. .yeah... thats not a feature.
In fact, you don't need those configuration statements in the first place. You could just as well initiated the slave replication by issuing CHANGE MASTER TO...
Yes... I realize....
Again... and this file is in /var... Whats the point of /etc/my.cnf... why not just store everything in /var?
Slave is always "started" unless my.cnf says "skip-slave-start".
Anyway, WITH skip-slave-start you will still have the slave information (binlog positions etc.) initiated but it will just not start replicating.
The information in master.info overrides anything in my.cnf.
