Yes, I did transport in binary mode...that was the first thing I thought about as well.
I tried it two different ways, and same result both times. Just to make sure, I tried gzipping it first as well, so at least gunzip would crap out if it was somehow de-binaryized...and everything seems to be okay with respect to that. Really strange!

Interesting detail...
If I try ftping the dump file back to the dev server, and try to import it into the
8.1.6.1 version, there is no problem. So the problem doesn't lie with export, and not with the file transfer... it seems to be the 8.1.5.0.0 import that's causing
a problem.

Is the CATEXP.SQL or CATALOG.SQL script ran when you create the database with the Wizzard?
Would not running it cause an error message like this?!
