Default Mysqldump noobie troubles

I am using minilogin 2 accounts on 6.0 dr2. Ok, i have been trying to refresh myself with all this again since 4.2.
My problems are with the backing up with the account tables and characters mainly but have been trying to backup my eq database.
I have read through numerous topics about how to do this. Maybe it is something to do with the mysql server i am using. I keep getting you have an error in your sql syntax, check the manual that corresponds to mysql server version error 1064 if i add the ; at the end of the command below. I have read the manual with no answers. Now when i run the command

mysqldump eq > eq-backup.sql'

it drops to this...

->

resulting in a 1 kb file that looks like this in the bin folder of mysql...

-- MySQL dump 9.11
--
-- Host: localhost Database: eq
-- ------------------------------------------------------
-- Server version 4.0.22-nt

But that's it, nothing else. Is there something i am doing wrong? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Other than this the server is all setup and works great. Just can't get my accounts and characters backed up.
