Currently, everything you listed can be done via queries to the server. Take a look at the MySQL manual for all the queries and their requisite responses. And I'm quite sure what you want to do has already been done. Please take a look at MySQL CC and MySQL Administrator (both available from the MySQL web site), as well as PHPMyAdmin, if you are looking for a web-based front end. I believe Webmin also has a MySQL module.
If you want to do it for fun to learn, that's fine, but if you want to save your self a lot of time, I'd reccommend looking at existing products. j----- k----- On Wednesday 03 March 2004 03:29 am, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi all > > I would like to try and implement the MySQL socket protocol (or what ever > you would call it), so that I can do all kinds of communication with a > MySQL server, like normal SQL, MySQL environment variables, performance > status, tables helth checks, and what ever is possible. > > The reson I need this, is just for fun :) Maybe if I succeed I will make > some webapp that can monitor all our databases, maybe I will never get that > far.
