Chipp Walters at Altuit has a really elegant solution to this problem. I'm sure he'll jump in when he visits the list next.


OK, another newbie question.  Once you install a program on
someone's local machine for win/linux/mac that uses mysql or
PG, do you typically notify them of patches to the engine or
expect end users to be smart enough to go out and get the
patches themselves?  It doesn't seem likely that most end
users would have any clue how to do this.  So if I have a
robust application that uses one of these databases, are
people required to patch, or since it's a local install can
you just toss a database file out there that will respond to
sql queries like an access database where it's essentially
just a file? (I don't suppose there's a hack to let access
databases run on
Mac/Linux???)

Thanks,

Oak
