Hi
I downloaded and installed the latest i386 RPM from MySql.com on a RH7 box.
When I try to contact the mysql server i get the following error:
[someone@somemachine ~]$ mysqladmin ping
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket

TCPwrappers has nothing to do with mysql.
Mysqld manages the port itself.
You do not want tcpwrappers grabbing the port.
Check the path to mysql.sock.
It must be world searchable and readable for the client to write to the
socket.
Read the section of the manual on GRANT privileges.
You are not
