Works perfectly indeed, to name the precautions to take: 1, Set proper server_id's 2. When using auto-incrementing fields, set the auto_increment_offset & auto_increment_increment. 3. If you write on 2 servers simultaneously, UNIQUE indexes can break replication. If your application requires both enforcing them AND writing to both servers, look at clustering instead. -- Rik Wasmus -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql?unsub=arch...@jab.org
