Dand, sorry, I forgot to cut and paste the error in there.  :\

It was something to the point of 'exceeded max_allowed_packet', though.

I can't find any sort of file in my system called 'my.cnf'.  Is there
another name or place this would be on a linux box?  I have a Cobalt RAQ4 if
you or anyone else knows anything about that specifically.

Thanks for the help!

:)
