Mysql.sock file - Help

I installed the base MySQL 4.0 with Suse Linux and I try and start it and I
get anb issue with the fact that mysql.sock file does not exist in
/etc..../mysql/mysql.sock

I created a file and made sure the owner is mysql.

Can anyone share a template for what this file should look like?

Dear All, I just downloaded & installed MYSQL. It seemed to work and I can start it and enter my password and change a directory but that is about all. I have been ready and playing "hit & miss" all afternoon and it seems to have something to do with the "mysql_install_db" not being installed correctly -- I have tried multiple installs with multiple downloaws. My log. . .
