Hi,
I'm setting wait_timeout variable through the my.cnf file.
Since I've upgraded from MySQL 4.0.2 to 4.0.3 (latest bk source), this
variable seems to have no effect.
How-to-repeat :
In my.cnf :
set-variable = wait_timeout=20
[root@forum] /usr/local/mysql/var> mysql -uroot -p
Enter password:
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 345 to server version: 4.0.3-beta-log
Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

| wait_timeout | 28800 |
Check out whether you have not set --no-defaults or --default-file or
similar in your script.
