slave to master

Hi,

I have setup an master slave replication.
This works fine.
I have running an Apache webserver and some other programms accessing the 
master.
Whats the standard pocedure if master fail?

I want to start up the programms on the slave by hand and then they are 
accessing the mySQL slave. Can they write to the slave or do I have to change 
something before in the mysql slave configuration?


thanks
Thomas
