Hi,

I've been given access to a MySQL database where my task is to create a copy
of the table, data and all. I was wondering if there is some method where I
can create a complete copy/back up of a remote MySQL database and then
'install' it on another server?

Thanks,

S

There is some such tools, some you can find links to from
http://www.skriptarchiv.com/php/cat.php/kat/17

I used to use one called MySQLPHPbak, but the homepage seems to be all gone
now (there are quite many references to the page).

Out of interest, what's wrong with the tools bundled with MySQL, i.e.
mysqldump and mysqlhotcopy?
