Back I think you are referring to mysqlhotcopy
and I was referring to URL below for the syntax
http://www.sourcekeg.co.uk/www.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysqlhotcopy.html
shell> mysqlhotcopy db_name [/path/to/new_directory]
shell> mysqlhotcopy db_name_1 ... db_name_n /path/to/new_directory
And i tried at my linux box [root@(protected) tong]# mysqlhotcopy bugs /home/tong/dbbackup/ DBI connect(';host=localhost;mysql_read_default_group=mysqlhotcopy','root',...) failed: Access denied for user: 'root@(protected)' (Using password: NO) at /usr/bi n/mysqlhotcopy line 167
What is the correct syntax actually ? It seems still required database login name and password isn't it?? Otherwise how do database authenticate and let it back up?
