OS: Linux 2.4
Mysql: 3.23.52

/etc/my.cnf 
--------------------------------------------------------------
[mysqld]
#datadir=/var/lib/mysql
#socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
datadir=/usr6/mysql
socket=/usr6/mysql/mysql.sock
port=3306

[mysql.server]
user=mysql
#basedir=/var/lib
basedir=/usr6

[safe_mysqld]
#err-log=/var/log/mysqld.log
err-log=/usr8/mysql/mysqld.log
pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid

[client]
socket=/usr6/mysql/mysql.sock

When I run  mysql_setpermission --user ted

I get the following error even though my.cnf has set socket for the
client to /usr6/mysql/mysql.sock:
Can't make a connection to the mysql server.
The error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2) at /usr/bin/mysql_setpermission line 65,
<STDIN> line 1.

 
How do I fix this?
