Would anybody be able to point me in the right direction of how to add SSL support to the “How To Set Up Database Replication In MySQL” howto found here: http://www.howtoforge.com/mysql_database_replication I am using MySQL 5.0.24 from the Debian Testing Distribution for both the master and the slave. This doesn't seem to have SSL support included by default as “have openssl = DISABLED”. So I'd appreciate any help on how I would: a) Add SSL support to MySQL 5.0.24 from Debian Testing. b) Make the data replication process use SSL so I can use it over an untrusted network. Thank you all, Neil
