Hi Vikram,

There are a couple of potential problems with Linux to Windows
replication, but they are easily avoidable.

1) Table names: There are case-sensitivity differences between Linux and
Windows: Linux is case-sensitive as regards table names, whereas Windows
is not. Given that you are replicating from a Linux master to a Windows
slave, you shouldn't hit too many problems with this, but if you ever
reverse the order for some reason there could be problems.

2) MySQL versions: try to make sure that you always use the same version
of MySQL on client and slave (this is generally good replication advice
in all cases). There have been some bugs in replication that cause
problems when the master and slave are on different versions.
