dear everybody, I have tree linux 7.3 machines on which MySQL-3.23.51-1.i386.rpm, MySQL-client-3.23.51-1.i386.rpm and MySQL-shared-3.23.51-1.i386.rpm is installed. the intrusion detection system snort loggs to these machines. Every machine is set up the same way and contains the same table. The data of these three tables is always different.
this works well, but now I want to have a place/machine where I can read the data of these three tables. Maybe I can set up a master to which all the other databases can log their data? Or perhaps I can configure every machine as master and as slave at the same time and thus every machine contains the whole data of these three machines. I am a newbie in mysql and don't know how to do it. I read the following link : http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Replication.html but I don't know if mysql meets my requirements. Anyway I tried to configure two of my databases like the example configuration. I had no problem with the master. then I tried to set up the slave and couldn't find the my.cnf, the mysqld and the mysqld.log files. I set up the two machines the same way!! Perhaps I used the wrong softare, but why exit the files on the other machine? thanks for your help martina podesser FLEXTRONICS World Trade Center A-1300 Vienna Austria [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.flextronics.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
