Don't touch the init script. It would get overridden by a future package update. /etc/my.cnf is the configuration file where you add all the desired tuning options. It will not be touched by an update. For your help the mysql-server package ships with example configurations for different setups: /usr/share/mysql/*.cnf > Thanks > Alex Alexander _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
