ERROR 1201

Hi guys,

I think I found a bug in the replication but I am not quite sure.  I am an
experienced programmer, I have spent 3 hours searching for a reason/solution
to this problem throughout your documentation and newsgroups and have come
up with nothing.

I am using...
Ver 4.0.15-standard for pc-linux on i686 with RedHat 8
The same version of Mysql is running on both the master and the slave.

I have had replication running for about a month now.  It was working fine
for a while and then it just stopped.  When I run START SLAVE I get the
error.

ERROR 1201: Could not initialize master info structure, check permissions on
master.info

I have checked the permissions on the file and even tried setting to 777 to
be sure. The same problem.  This is the contents of the file.

I don't want to run any commands such as "RESET SLAVE" or take a new
snapshot of the DB and start clean because I bet that it will start working
fine again.  If I do this I might need to wait another week to see it fail
again.   So I am a little bit limited in troubleshooting the problem.

What do you think?

Thank you,
Brian Piere
