We'd like to upgrade Apache/MySQL/PHP to the latest versions. Before upgrading we'd like to test on a test box. What's the fastest way of duplicating the existing Apache/MySQL/PHP (including user databases)? (The production server cannot go down for more than a few seconds.) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
