I need a smal "how to" regarding editing mysql configuration on a unix server. Thanks in advance.
Not sure what you mean.
If you are using ssh to get to the server, then you have a terminal window open. Once you are logged in on the server, you should be able to edit the file. See the man page for vi. If you have more questions, please also post what OS and version you are using, and more specifics about what you need. Thanks.
I could change them through mysql SET GLOBAL . Thanks. If somebody else has a similar issue http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/index.html
