[KLUG Members] Moving a MySQL database....

[Robert G. Brown]

...should be fairly easy, you might think.

I want to move one from a Windows 2000 server to Linux.

Apparently it is not quite as simple as archiving all the
files in a database directory on the Windows machine, copying
it all over to the Linux box, putting it in an approriate 
directory, diddling the acces permissions, and so on....

Someone on this list must have done this, probably on a rather
routine basis; pointers, suggestions (especially useful or
amusing ones) are hereby requested...

Apparently, there are numerous tools out there for this; I'd like
to read of experience with these, and reccomendations would be
most welcome.
