MySQL Backup & Restore

I did this on an install of MySQL 5 Community Server running on Windows 2008 Server Web Edition- From the command line- backup:

mysqldump -u [username] -p[password] [database name] > FILE.sql

restore;

mysql -u [username] -p[password] [database name] < FILE.sql

Remember; if you have restored your core mysql database, which contains all the info on users and privileges, you will need to do a

FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

before you will be able to login using those user accounts!
