Here's what the /etc/my.cnf file on my system looks like:
[client]
port=3306
socket=/home/mysql/mysql.sock
[mysqld]
port=3306
socket=/home/mysql/mysql.sock
The first section affects the "mysql" client. The second section affects
the "mysqld" server.
So, type "mysql --help" for a list of things that you can put in the
client section, and "/usr/sbin/mysqld --help" (substitute the correct path
name for mysqld) for a list of things that you can put in the server
section.
That said, I do think the MySQL manual should include a section that
explains my.cnf better, if it doesn't have one already.
