I'm guessing but... It looks like you did not set the master log position properly. Your slave is at position 79 in the master log. You can tell by looking at Relay_Log_Space and Seconds_Behind_Master (140 days) that is it far behind the master. That would account for the couple of months that the server was up before you decided to replicate it.Hello All, Here is a problem I have been trying to debug for a few days. I had a mysql server running for about a month. I did a mysql dump of all the tables on the master and setup a second machine to be the slave, loading all the tables. I set the replication stuff up in the slave my.cnf. Now as soon as I start the slave I get good data flow between the two machines but the slave does not update with the error below. Is this because I did not do a binary snapshot of the master machine to setup the slave? I originally was not going to setup replication, just going to do dumps of tables, but then changed directions.
Thanks! If you need more info, please ask.

Did you get the log position of your snap shot and use `change master to` to sync the slave to the correct position? You can either reset the master logs using RESET MASTER or you need to do a SHOW MASTER STATUS to get the log file position at the time of your snap shot. When you set up the slave you can provide the log file position or, if you RESET MASTER, you can set MASTER_LOG_FILE='the_name_the_log_file' and MASTER_LOG_POS=4, which is the default start position for a fresh binary log.
Here is some good reading: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/replication.html http://dev.mysql.com/books/hpmysql-excerpts/ch07.html
Best of luck to you.
