Simply configure the database section in merlin.conf to point to your
centralized MySQL server and database. The database has to exist before
Merlin can write to it.

You also need to configure Ninja to use that centralized server. The ninja
config file is application/config/database.php

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
