Here is how you dump database(s) on one server into a database on another server! mysqldump --opt -a LOCALDBNAME [LOCALTABLE1 [LOCALTABLE2]] -u USER -pPASSWORD | mysql --host=REMOTEHOST REMOTEDBNAME -u USER -pPASSWORD See man mysqldump and man mysql for further options! I am going to use this for periodic updates from the main mysql server to the backup mysql server. Much simpler than dumping the database on the main server, ftp/scping it to the backup server, then inserting it into the backup db. Why not just backup the db using it's replication features: http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Replication.html Pete - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html

[OT] Re: mysql neat trick
Yes, I am aware of doing Replication. Due to some system issues, I cannot do that. That is why I am happy to use that nice long command I found in the mysqldump man page. Thanks for the idea though!
