You really should reply to the list and not just me. I may not be able to
help you or I may not have the time.
If my memory serves me correctly, my mysql.host is in /var/lib/mysql
directory. I'd have to check but I'm too lazy to right now. Do a find on
your PC for that file. IF it doesn't exist, it is most likely because you
haven't done a post install and you should go back and read the relevant
part of the manual. Or did someone delete it? If it does exist, I am sure
there is a setting somewhere that you can set the path to the DB but I'm
sure you can RTFM just as well as I can for that info.
