Put the server on the machine with the data. You don't want your server doing full table scans across the network.

Hi! I have just installed MySQL 3.23.52 in a Windows2000. This machine is connected
in a network. I would like to now if it is possible to install the datadir directory in
another machine but the one that I have installed the MySQL Server. I have tried using in the my.cnf file the option datadir with the path (f.e. if
I have a network driver X: and I want to install the datadir path in x:\data\,)
like datadir = x:/data/

when I try to start the MySQL service I get an error 1067. I have read the
manual but I did not find anything saying about installing the datadir in
another machine. thank for your time. jaime
