Hi:

I telnet to the server.  But I can not get into MySql
database.  What's the problem?


% mysql
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server
through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'
 (2)             

% mysql -p linksdb
Enter password:

Then I type in password, and got the following:

ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server
through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'
 (2)      

I also tried the following: 
(for username I typed in real username)

% mysql -u username -p
Enter password:
ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server
through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'
 (2)    

What's my problem?

Thanks in advance!
