I did locate something on my RH6.2 box that I wonder about, although I don't
know much about sockets.
When trying to connect via mysql netstat reports:
unix 0 [ ] STREAM CONNECTING 0
/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
and that is where it stays. If I kill mysql and try again the existing
connection is still there.
