Per a response from Victoria (thanks, BTW!) I see that I can reload my InnoDB RI's 
data by turning off SET FOREIGN_KEY_CHECKS = 0 during the restore.  I then tried to go 
to the machine where the dumps were going to be restored and set this variable in the 
[client] section of my.cnf.  But when I try to connect after that, I get an: 

"ERROR: unknown variable 'foreign_key_checks=0'.  

I then tried using:

set variable=foreign_key_checks=0 

...but got the same result. 

Is there a list of variables that I *can* use in the [client] section, or am I just 
doing something wrong.

Thanks,

Lou Olsten
