Thank you for your answer.
Here is what I did
cd
/seqweb/mysqlhome
mercure{mysql}140: more .my.cnf
# The following options will be passed to all MySQL clients
[client]
user = mysql
password = xxxx
port = 3306
socket = /tmp/mysql4.sock
# Here follows entries for some specific programs
# The MySQL server
[mysqld]
[mysqldump]
[mysql]
[isamchk]
[myisamchk]
[mysqlhotcopy]
I still have the problem.
DBI connect('database=mysql;host=localhost;port=3306','mysql',...) failed:
Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2) at
/seqweb/mysql4/myscripts/4/check_innodb.pl line 62
Also this is a less attractive solution since the same user will work on
version4 and version 5.
Thank you

put a .my.cnf file in the client's home directory that specifies the socket.
