Hi,
 
From what I understand, I need to execute the pg_dump command from the new server( so that it will use the 7.4.6 version), but connect to the old DB. Am I right?
 
Thanks,
Saranya

You should use the 7.4.6 version of pg_dump to dump the old database. Note
you still need to be running the 7.3.2 server for the old database.
pg_dump will be just acting like a client connecting over the network
and will work with older versions of the server.
