Use of slave server for read only queries

[Ashok Chauhan]

Hi All,

I'm using Mysql 5 (with replication) on CentOS 4.4 OS with 2 CPU and 8GB
of RAM.
Master & Slave servers have same hardware configration.

Now i want to know, should i use slave server for fetching read only
queries.
if yes, then how ?.

Thanks
Ashok
