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.

mysql> show variables; <cut> | version | 4.0.3-beta-log | | wait_timeout | 28800 |

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