We've got mysql 3.23 installed on a redhat system via the rpm's that
come with RedHat 8.0.  I'd like to change the default data directory so
something other than /var/lib/mysql.  I know this is supposed to be
possible with a start switch of --datadir=/path/to/data but it doesn't
seem to work.  

The startup of mysql uses the /etc/init.d/mysqld script so I suppose
I'll need to change something in that and add the switch, I just can't
seem to figure out where.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Jeff
