One of the main problems with a global config file is that I am running two servers on the same machine (MySQL 4.0 and 5.0, each with separate data directories of course). Currently I am using config files (my.cnf) in each server's data directory, but telling the server about another datadir inside that other datadir is obiously not reasonable. -- Yves Goergen "LonelyPixel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://beta.unclassified.de – My web laboratory. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
