This is exactly what I'm trying to avoid doing, it means 2 days downtime whilst the data is re-inserted. I have actually managed to fix it now though. I checked the old binary log from the master, and it had no new data for the slave, so I simply issued a 'CHANGE MASTER ...' on the slave to tell it to use the new binary log file, with a position of 4 (the start) and off it when - back to being in sync. Why these defaults changed on a minor mysql release update is beyond me, however I suspect this is gentoo's fault, not MySQLs. -- Ian P. Christian ~ http://pookey.co.uk
