On my mysql servers, I've noticed some unexpected files in the
/usr/local/mysql/data/ directory.
Specifically, I have files like:
hostname-bin.001
hostname-bin.002
hostname-bin.003
etc. (obviously with hostname being replaced with the name of the
computer)
I also have files like...
Okay, replying to my own post is like talking to one's self but...
so I finally found the manual page that describes the two files. Any

In the mysql-data-directory (for my home /var/lib/mysql) I find a some
files named:

./server-bin.010
./server-bin.011
./server-bin.012
./server-bin.013

Thanks a lot!

It made for a great way to throw real queries at a test server. I'd
just make the test server a slave of the
