Bet ya'll have seen this before but since I'm a MEGA-newbie and totally lost,
could I get some help??

Good old 'Can't connect to local mysql server through socket' error. Running
RH8.0, tried troubleshooting this sucker from the myslq documentation but, as it
would figure, RedHat moved files all over the damned place and I can't figure it
out where anything is and make it work.

I can ping my db machine both locally and from another workstation, so IP is ok.
Can't find the mysql.sock the error talks about on the machine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I need this machine to develop a web
site.

Thanks in advance.
