Hi Shabala,
Amazing this works in mysql, I know Sybase does some funky useful things
on a group by like this but other then that, your query is wrong. Maybe
mysql has some logic that if a column has a single value within the
aggregate it doesn't mind the fault.
Any column on which you do not place an aggregate of sorts should appear
in your group by in order for the group by to work.
For your query the group by should thus include:
cnt, lnk_name, dir, t_rate and rate
