I am actually in the process of planning a similar upgrade for our database server. None of our databases are that big, but was wondering about what "gotcha's" I should be on the lookout for. I planned on walking through the upgrade pages from mysql.com for going from 3.23 to 4.0 and 4.0 to 4.1. I was hoping not to have to re-create the databases as the original poster mentioned, but I don't have a slave DB setup either. Will this be an issue?
Well, in 4.0.22, you can do a new=1.. (something like that). and yer suppose to be able to test these new features in 4.1..
Might want to look for that in 3.23..
No, there is no such option in 3.23.
In general, it's better to upgrade 3.23 -> 4.0 -> 4.1 so that you can get used to differences from one version series to the next, rather than skipping version series.

I was thinking about this as well, but was hoping to minimize the amount of work I would have to do. However, if this makes the most sense for upgrading, perhaps this is what I'll do.
