I decided to spend a couple more minutes trying to get replication working. I didn't.

First I put "bind-address 10.0.0.1" in the my.cnf on the master server instead of "bind-address=10.0.0.1". That took me a minute to find.

When I tried to test using mysql interface on the slave server to connect to the master, it's putting @hostname as the userid, instead of @ipaddress. Maybe it will work anyway..

I changed some data on the master. The slave did not update. Nope, not working. I'll get there. I'll just have to force no name resolution, or change the replication account details to reflect the hostname of the other machine, instead of the IP.

I'm going to bed.
