Hi
thanks a lot for your prompt reply. The second email
went out on accident - apologies.
I managed to fix it - I found localhost; EcolMod1
in user.myd.
Thanks again,
Rainer

Hi there
I have a question regarding replication.
This is the situation:
Mysql-Max4.0.16
192.168.0.10 master
192.168.0.11 slave
I would like to use the slave as the backup server
and use it in case the master goes down for any reason.
I'm looking for a safe method to re-update the master when we take it
up again. I read that 2-ways replication is dangerous so for peace of
mind I would avoid it.
I was considering a simple dump of the database on slave,
when I have to reconnect the master server.
I would:
1. disconnect the slave
2. create a dump file form salve
3. put the dump on the master
4. reconnect the master and slave
Questions are..
a. I use innodb tables. Any problems to nofify?
b. Are auto_increment values correct/safe after such operations. I
guess so but I'm not 100% sure c. Do you have comments and suggestions
regarding 2-ways replications
Any suggestion / comment is welcome ;)
Thanks!!
