Don't know of a faster way.>> Thanks for the prompt reply, I understand why bin-log is needed for a master, but I was questioning the usefulness of having the bin-log setting for a slave while it's running as a slave. When the slave becomes a master, doesn't it need a new my.cnf (which would have the bin-log set) or can it become a master with its slave my.cnf? If it can become a master using the slave my.cnf (which has the bin-log set) what commands would I need to call to make it a master now, and no longer a slave to its old master?
