Getting into a MySQL file

Can it be done with Server Admin?

[Musicarl]

Hello.

I'm learning that there is a MySQL file that can benefit from better settings than what an Xserve comes with:
[threadsdev.com...]
0/page/0#88576

We've had our Xserve for a few months now and are still learing about administration. Is there a good way to access the my.cnf file, or any from the root of the server using the Server Admin tools? I don't plan on doing this very often, so I'd rather not spring for Remote Desktop, especially since we have only one server and 3 sites to worry about.

you can just use Terminal:

sudo pico my.conf

If you don't know where the file is located, then use this command:

sudo find / -iname 'my.conf'

and insert the whole result in the above. If you've got BBEdit installed you can just use their commandline tools to open the file.
