Bug Description

[In:How to setup a slave for replication in 5 simple steps with Xtrabackup]

[quote]STEP 3: Configure The Slave’s MySQL server

First copy the my.cnf file from The Master to The Slave:

TheSlave$ scp user@TheMaster:/etc/mysql/my.cnf /etc/mysql/my.cnf

Changed in percona-xtrabackup:
