[Gllug] Backing-up / Moving a MySQL database

[Xander D Harkness]

I have just installed the horde groupware suite which backends to a 
MySQL database.

The packages come with some lovely scripts so that you can install the 
database without knowing anything about MySQL :-)

I have just discovered that a new server is being built in the next few 
days to take this software.

As many of the users have entered their data, I was wondering how easy 
it is to move the database.  Is it a matter of copying a couple of files?

I guess the same questions go for backups too :-)

Kind regards
Xander
