Hi there - I'm truing to connect to a mysql server (redhat linux 8) with the
mysqlcc GUI (through a SSH session), and for some reason when I try to
connect I get the error:

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

Now I was reading that this would be because I used "localhost" as the host
name and if that is the case, the system uses unix sockets... Is there a way
to force it to use TCPip?

Specify a hostname of 127.0.0.1 rather than localhost.
