I have installed the latest stabel MySQL server and client. When I try
to run mysqladmin, I keep getting the following message:

Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)' Check that mysqld is running and that
the socket: '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' exists! 

When I switch to /var/lib/mysql there is a linux.err file but no
mysql.sock.

I started mysqld with safe_mysqld &

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
