MySQL Forums :: Install :: Where does max_join_size go in my.cnf?

I am using MySQL version

I get the following message when MySQL starts up:
[Warning] option 'max_join_size': unsigned value 18446744073709551615 adjusted to 4294967295.

Now I know it is just a warning and not much to worry about but I'd like to eliminate the message. So I stopped MySQL and added 'max_join_size = 4294967295' to my.cnf under the [mysqld] section. I restarted MySQL and still get the same message. Did I put the value in the correct section? If no, where does it go? If yes, why did it not pick it up?

Thanks
Don
