Probably your server is not using any sockets, check out your my.cnf.
man mysql
to see how to connect to a ip based mysql host. C/ya!

Hi Mike,
You have to start the mysql server before you
can run the client. Try running "mysqld_safe --user=mysql"
from /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin, depending on where
you installed it.
To see if it is running currently on your machine,
try this: ps -ef | grep mysqld
Hope this helps...

or you could just say
rpm -ivh MYSQL-*
then it will install all mysql packages
