I have a bunch of databases - some are really big, 2GB - on a number of

move everything over -- hopefully all in one night. Can anyone suggest
the best way to do this? Would it be to use the Export command in
phpMyAdmin?

I'm not familiar with phpMyAdmin, but I would dump everything to sql
files, using the extended insert option then compressing the resulting
sql files. Then create a hash (MD5) and ftp the files over, checking the
hash on the remote system, uncompressing, and importing. I do something
like this with my backups (all automated, except for the checking of the
hash on the remote system, I just store the MD5 in an ascii file.)
