Multi-master replication -- in particular in a scenario where disconnection is probable -- is a _very_ hard problem to get right. Neither MySQL nor any of the other open-source databases have anything near this, even though both MySQL and PostgreSQL (and probably others, such as Firebird) have acceptable single-master replication solutions. /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ _______________________________________________ Prime mailing list [email protected] http://hogranch.com/mailman/listinfo/prime
