in reply to Perl/mySQL question

I don't know that Perl is the (best) way to do this, but it can be done in Perl I'm sure... Howevever..
If you are running MySQL 3.23.33 or higher, you may want to look at this site. This is arguably the better way to do database mirroring, and will likely be supported in the larger closed source database implementations. (You'll probably have to re-learn the replication aspect of Oracle/Informix/Sybase/etc.)
