Hi! MySQL 3.23 already has synchronous replication. It is in a widespread use already. MySQL 4.0 will have a replication agent for fail-safe replication, which would make possible changing of roles between master / slave on the run. You can send mails to me directly if you wish some additional info. -- Regards, __ ___ ___ ____ __ / |/ /_ __/ __/ __ \/ / Mr. Sinisa Milivojevic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> / /|_/ / // /\ \/ /_/ / /__ MySQL AB, Fulltime Developer /_/ /_/\_, /___/\___\_\___/ Larnaca, Cyprus <___/ www.mysql.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
