Thanks for all of your responses :)
Unfortunately, I could not telnet into the server, nor could I do the
mysql_connect command to get into the old server.
I ended up calling the hosting company today to find out if they
would be willing to create a dump for me, since they had been
unresponsive to my e-mails, and they did. So I'm happy with that :)
