Hello!

I have a strange problem with mysqladmin on Solaris 8.

I can't seem to shut down the server via "mysqladmin -uroot -p shutdown". It
just... well... sits there. Hitting <ctrl-c> gives 

bash-2.03$ mysqladmin shutdown
^CWarning;  Aborted waiting on pid file: '/opt/db/simon.pid' after 121 seconds
bash-2.03$

The Pidfile says 7962. ps -ef says mysqld is running with PID 7962.

Connecting to the mysql server after running mysqladmin and terminating it 
works, but the uptime has been reset.

I really wouldn't want to get rough with it, so how do I take it down 
gracefully with minimum danger of losing data?


Cheers, 
Markus
