are you simply dumping the live database? i'm not exactly sure why they are having issues after the backup. what version of MySQL are you using? I'd suggest you look at having a database replication setup. then you can simply dump the replicated backup...so you have a live and in-sync backup to fall back onto too. alan - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
