Hello.
You may create my.cnf from the examples which're shipped with MySQL
distribution. MySQL will create the socket file if it doesn't exists.
It's location could be specified in configuration file or in command
line options. See:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/program-options.html
Keep in mind that this file will only exist when mysqld is running.

It's created by the server when you start the server.
It won't exist until then.

the socket file is created in the spot specified in /etc/mysql/my.cnf.
In my case its:
socket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
as always ymmv.
