Hi,

I'm running MySQL 5.0.51 Community edition. I have a half a gigabyte sized database that I'd like to move from a Windows 2000 based server to a Linux server. What's the best way to do this? I normally take complete backup using MySQL administrator which creates a file with sql to recreate the tables and insert the data. Can I simply ftp this to the Linux box and restore it to a database there? Is there a MySQL administrator for Linux?

Thanks


Why can't you just shutdown the MySQL server and copy the data files to the data directory on the Linux server?

Mike
