To use the Replication Status section you must be connected to the server that acts as the master in your replication scheme. Your MySQL servers must be version 4 or higher to use this feature.

For a slave server to show in the Replication Status screen, it must register itself with the master server. To have a slave server register itself with the master, set the report-host option in your server configuration (my.cnf/my.ini) file. See Replication and Binary Logging Options and Variables.

You can also set the value in the Replication tab of the Startup Variables section of MySQL Administrator.
