Hi Jason,

Most other peoples responses are excellent as usual, however might I suggest 
getting a copy of High Performance MySQL by Jeremy Zawodny (O'Reilly 
publishers). This covers the exact scenario you are talking about.

Regards

Subject: MySQL Replication

I am trying to understand exactly how replication works.  So far, I see that
changes made on a master server are replicated to the slave server(s).
However, if a change is made on a slave server, is that replicated back to
the master as well as all other slaves?


I am asking this question as I try to develop a plan for more efficient web
servers.  Here is what I am planning.  Please let me know if this sounds
smart, or like a bad idea.

Server 1: Redhat MySQL Master
Servers 2 & 3: Load-Balanced Redhat Apache web servers w/MySQL Slaves

Servers 2 & 3 will be serving the same content and will need access to the
same data from the MySQL server(s).  I am hoping that running MySQL on each
of the web servers will help to reduce the overall load on the servers.

Thank You,
