I am new to MySQL and was recently given a task where I need to
transfer a database from one computer to another. Both computers are
Macintoshes running OS X Panther. Both computers are running MySQL
through localhost. The computer to which I am transferring the
database has MySQL up and running perfectly fine. The computer from
which I want to get the database is able to query the database through
a web application using Perl but when I try to run MySQL from the Unix
command line using the following text: "mysql -h localhost -u root -p"
I get the following response "-sh: mysql: command not found." As far
as I know, MySQL is installed correctly on this machine (I would
assume it has to be in order for the web application to access the
database through Perl and MySQL). If I can start and run MySQL, I know
that I can dump the database using the "mysqldump" command. Does
anyone have any suggestions on what I need to do to get the mysql
command to execute correctly so that I can run the program?

Thanks, 
Darryl
