OK, I've managed to do the same thing with just the mysql command line
program:
mysql -h 192.168.0.224 -u root -p alba2 < /Backup/Latest/
alba2_2009-03-10_00h45m.Tuesday.sql
Works great. However, the sql file is normally gzipped, so.... Can I
ungzip the file on the fly (and without removing the .gzip version)
and pipe the contents as I did above? (Yes, I'm UNIX-impaired.)
Something like:
mysql -h 192.168.0.224 -u root -p alba2 < gzip -dc /Backup/Latest/
alba2_2009-03-10_00h45m.Tuesday.sql.gz
But so that it works...

Here's my syntax so far (run on the server):
mysqlimport --host=192.168.0.224 --user=root --password alba2
alba2_2009-03-10_00h45m.Tuesday.sql
Which produces:
---
mysqlimport: Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the
manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right

The sql file is produced by automysqlbackup... Not sure what I'm
missing, probably something obvious. Anyway, here's the first part
of the sql file I want to import:
