Hi Quy

In the released version of mysql for win32 you have mysqld.exe, mysqld-opt.exe and
mysqld-nt.exe.
In the shareware version this last one isn't available.

From the released README file:
...
There is 3 different SQL servers included with this package:

mysqld		Compiled with full debugging and automatic memory allocation
		checking.  Requires TCP/IP.
mysqld-opt	Optimized for a Pentium processor. Requires TCP/IP.
mysqld-nt	Optimized for a Pentium pro processor. Has support for
		named pipes. One can run this version on Win98, but in
		this case no named pipes are created and one must
		have TCP/IP installed.
...

Hope this carifies things.

Tschau
