Thanks Praveen,

So Max is not a server version, it sure is difficult to determine that on 
the download page:

MySQL database server & standard clients:
·       MySQL 3.23 -- Stable release (recommended) latest version is 3.23.52
·       ·       3.23 -- Default package (use this if you are unsure)
·       ·       3.23 Max -- Package with maximum features

Should I now download 3.23 (Default pkg) and run the rpm, how will this 
affect what happened on my server below? Is there a way to un-install the 
client and Max? Or should I just install 3.23 and all will be better?

Thanks again.

Chris
