Ubuntu server and mysql

[Simpson Moyo]

Hi Neil,

Whats your setup like? What kind of data are you looking at synchronizing?
If you would like to keep your server setup private email me and i will
assist you with the setup... its pretty straight forward... but it all
really depends on the nature of your proposed setup.
