Anybody:

I've installed (and got working!) MySQL on my Windows 2000 pc and am trying 
to use the "my.cnf" file.

1) The manual says that my.cnf is included in the installation and that I 
should copy it to c:\my.cnf. ("Copy the file `\mysql\my-xxxxx.cnf' to 
`C:\my.cnf' and edit it to suit your setup.") However I searched and 
searched for the suggested file and could not find it (or anything like it...);

2) I created my own c:\my.cnf based on the my.ini file but it didn't work 
(i.e. the commands I put in to my.cnf had no effect);

3) I then put the same options into my.ini and everything worked just fine.

I'm wondering 1) if using my.ini is O.K.; and 2) am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,

Phil
