How can we use --log-warnings

[David Marois]

We are with mysql 4.0.17-log and we want to use --log-warnings to see aborted connections
in our errorlog.
 
We put log_warnings = 2 in our my.cnf and restarted mysql but we did not see aborted
connections in our errorlog.
 
We tried --log-warnings = 2 on the command line when we started mysql and again, we did
not see aborted connections in our errorlog.
 
We tried --log-warnings on the command line when we started mysql and again, we did not
see aborted connections in our errorlog.
 
When I do a mysqladmin variables, I saw log_warnings = ON.
 
So, how can we set this parameter to be able to see something in our errorlog ?
