I'm still having problems with mysql. I try to shutdown mysql so I can restart it - I get this:
tsunami# mysqladmin -u root -p shutdown
Enter password:
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (2)'
Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/tmp/mysql.sock' exists!
The file mysql.sock isn't in the /tmp folder. I did a locate mysql.sock and it doesn't show. My /tmp folder has alot of files in it that look suspicious:

Any ideas or suggestions? And as a last resort I may need to siimply reinstall mysql.
