It did not work Daniel. I added this into my.cnf file: [mysqld] log-bin=/var/log/mysql/binary.log
and saved the file in two places: /etc/my.cnf /usr/local/mysql/my.cnf Then, I restart the server: sudo /Lybrary/StartupItems/MySQLCOM restart I also did two UPDATE, one INSERT, and one DELETE, but the "binary.log" file was not created. Note: I am using Mac OS X.

If you use the binary log, there are no issues - in replication uses the binary log to achieve it's goals. Since the plain-text log is depreciated, you probably should learn to use the binary log. As I noted before, the plain-text log has some issues. I'm not sure what all of them are, but I've encountered issues when using plain-text logs and temporary tables ( eg 2 users create temporary tables - in the plain text log, it looks like the 1 user ). -- Daniel Kasak IT Developer NUS Consulting Group Level 5, 77 Pacific Highway North Sydney, NSW, Australia 2060 T: (+61) 2 9922-7676 / F: (+61) 2 9922 7989 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] website: http://www.nusconsulting.com.au -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
