I'm assuming that by "external MySQL" it is meant "a mysqld not shipped with SlimServer". Please correct my understanding if that is not the case. I ask because for some of the "supported" platforms (e.g., OpenBSD), binaries are no longer distributed. Specifically, mysqld. If my understanding of "external MySQL server" is correct, then that might be argued to be a contradiction. For instance, the Transporter which requires SlimServer 6.5 implies support of Linux, BSD, and Solaris by being listed under "System Requirements". And SlimServer 6.5, as per it's present beta change notes, indicates no longer shipping binaries for FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Solaris. No big deal to me. I was just thrown by reading your response and figured that either I don't understand what is meant by "external MySQL" or perhaps SlimServer support of platforms other than Windows, OS X, and Linux is being dropped. -- dnewman ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dnewman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=7021 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=26474 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
