Hello,

        I am new to mysql and am in the middle of upgrading our mysql server to the 
latest release. Upon viewing our currently
data directory I noticed a large amount of hostname-bin-### files.

Some of hostname-bin-### have time stamps of January -- from the documentation I have 
read I can uses these to restore
mysql data. So am I correct in thinking that I can safely backup any hostname-bin-### 
files older then let's say a week
to a backup server and then delete them from the data directory ?

We are running mysql-3.23 build 50.
