it helps a lot when MySQL is running. Thank you. But when "mysqladmin --user=x --password=y ping" says that the "connect failed" even phpmyadmin doesn't work anymore. Do you know programs like tcpdump to monitor a network interface or top to watch the processes on a linux host? Is there a similar program to observe mysqld? I would like to use it. Or can I do that with phpmyadmin but I don't know it? Bye Karl -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
