WHAT? am i doing wrong? (mySQL Question)

I'm trying to import a database which is *ahum* 120MB big...
Now my problem is, that the standard max_allowed_packet size isn't big enough for that... (i think it's usually 16MB)
So i added:
set-variable = max_allowed_packet=200M
to /etc/my.cnf, restarted Mysqld but it's still set to 16MB...
I can't find any problem in mysqld.log:

030504 17:47:00 mysqld ended

030504 17:47:01 mysqld started
/usr/libexec/mysqld: ready for connections

looks good, hmm?

So why the heck doesn't this work?!
Anyone got any clue?

Thanks for your help!

best regards
