The one major design spec, my management has requested, is lack of TCP/IP connectivity between the two servers using the data. One network is completely isolated from the outside world/internet, however we are trying to find a secure way to allow outside users to query historical data that currently resides on the isolated network.

You might want to check out replication, so that you can push a read-only copy of the tables to a mysqld running on the web server. -- Dan Nelson [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
