that's probably what i needed... i didn't know that was an option! also,
i do have localhost (127.0.0.1) in /etc/hosts... as far as i can tell,
mysql is creating the socket, i'm pretty sure...
in the config.php file in php-nuke, i told it to use camelot as the
server, which is the hostname. at least now i have some more things to
try... i think nuke wants to use tcp/ip and not sockets... i'll give it
a try in the next day or two!

thanks,
jason
