Yep, that was the command I was looking for. That at least got the DB
to a point where it would start, and I was able to do a dump.

So, I dumped and reloaded all of the databases. Things seem fine, but
bits and pieces of documentation I've seen for pg_resetxlog also
recommend initdb, and starting over. Is that necessary?

Thanks,

Dan
