    I recently set up an email server on one of the machines on my network
    and was attempting to set up a webmail client (it's the same machine
    that the web server is on.). I downloaded the Popper webmail client,
    and it said that I would need MySQL installed. I downloaded the binary
    from www.mysql.com and followed the install instructions, but when I
    tried to run mysql it gave me an error. I tried running mysql on
    another machine (which has RH9 complete install on it) and I got the
    same error. I've pasted the error below. Any suggestions on how to fix
    this? Thanx!

    This is the error: ERROR 2002: Can't connect to local MySQL server
    through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)

    I've checked that location on the server PC and there is no file at that
    location. It's not on the RH9 complete install PC either...
