Hi Folks
Every now and again one of my slaves try's to connect to its master via its ip address as opposed to its dns name. This causes a problem because the ip address does not have credentials on the master, therefore, connection refused ->replication ends ->databases out of sync-> angry users-> we all know the rest. The switch is random both temporally and machine wise. Are there any ideas on why this is happening or what needs to be done to prevent it? Perhaps this is a bug and should be reported as such? Thanks Michael
