If you need up-to-the-minute sync then the mysql replication feature is the only way to go. Other methods are: Using mysqldump: 1) Dump from local mysql straight to remote mysql: "mysqldump --opt name_of_database | mysql --compress -h remote.mysql.host name_of_database" 2) Dump from local mysql and compress to file: "mysqldump --opt name_of_db | gzip > name_of_db.gz Then ftp to remote, decompress and import. 3) Install phpMyAdmin on both machines. -- Jason Wong -> Gremlins Associates -> www.gremlins.com.hk Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design & Hosting * Internet & Intranet Applications Development * /* BARBARA STANWYCK makes me nervous!! */
