I have moved to a new host, therefore changed my dns settings and I cant acess my phpmyadmin thru the goodies...mysql on dreamhost. How can I gain acess to these files?

thanks in advance

Maybe a nice letter to DH, letting them know what you would like to do. Maybe that can place the file someplace where you can wget the file. But then again no guaranties.

If you still have a shell account, you can get at your database from the command line, and get a dump from there - see the Wiki for details.
