Thanks for the reply. My original install was w/ an RPM from the Redhat Network, I uninstalled all RPM's associated w/ MySQL, Apache, and PHP and downloaded the latest of everything and compiled it. After I did an updatedb on my box, I searched for "mysqldump" and "mysql" to confirm it was gone -- nothing was found.
./mysqldump Ver 10.9 Distrib 4.1.8a, for redhat-linux-gnu (i686) The actual tables are there, but the images (or any attachments) are really messed up. Looks like something from the 60's, lol.
