On the Cobalt it should be /home/mysql/mysql.sock
and usually /home/tmp/mysql.sock.

Just do a locate to find out where it is rather than bouncing around
looking for it:
# locate mysql.sock

If this is a recent install of mysql and the locate database hasn't
had a chance to update yet; you might want to update it first.
(You'll find the command in the archives.)
