If you are running Linux, you can drop the my.cnf file into: /etc/my.cnf
If you installed from source, you should already have a my.cnf file on the
machine, but it probably is not located where it is being used by the dbase
server. If you installed from source check here:
/usr/local/mysql/share/mysql/
You should have some files in there such as: my-huge.cnf, my-large.cnf,
my-medium.cnf and my-small.cnf.
Take a look at those. You can modify one, rename it to my.cnf and drop it in
/etc/.
