The current version of MySQL is 3.23. I have no time upgrading my dedicated server to a RedHat machine with custom PHP and MySQL, I don't have the time to do that. Who think we could make them make the right move and pretty quickly? When you do leave, make sure and tell them why. Also stress your opinion of their move to MS software. Dotan http://IE-Only.com

In a shared hosting environment, where servers are often grossly overloaded, you'll either have very little chance of reaching those bandwidth numbers, or if you do, you'll be asked to upgrade or close your account because of the high processing load needed to push that much traffic. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

SNIP Who think we could make them make the right move and pretty quickly? I'm guessing that you are young and haven't had enough experience with idiots. Simply change vendors.
