over occasionally. I'm uncertain what kind of
granularity we can get
with MySQL's replication; can we leave out the user table (in whole or
in part) for instance? Not a big deal if it's just to another of Jimbo's
machines, but I'd be leery of shipping e-mail addresses and password
hashes over the internet to a third-party mirror site.
mysql supports ssl-encryption, so.... this should't be a problem.
Notes; I'm not sure how much bandwidth would be
required just for
database traffic, or for updates. I'll check into that tonight. If it's
within an internal network, it shouldn't be a problem.
it's about twice the real data, but mysql and ssh supports compression!
