Sorry it is the first time, i write for help...
So,
i have :   -Linux Redhat 6.2 with Kernel 2.2.14-5.0 i586
              -MySQL-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm.rpm
              -MySQL-client-3.22.32-1.i386.rpm
              -mysqladmin ver 8.0 ditrib 3.22.32 for pc-linux
              -mysqld is running (ps -ef | grep mysqld)

There is a "mysql.sock" under /var/lib/mysql
When i type "mysqladmin version" or "mysqladmin -u root password ", it said
:
        - "can't connect to local MySQL server through socket from
/tmp/mysql.sock. Check that mysqld is running and the socket /tmp/mysql.sock
exist."

And when i type safe_mysql, it said :
            -" Starting mysqld deamon with database from /var/lib/mysql "
and spite in of it write" mysqld ended".
 mysql.sock under /tmp  it may be deleted.

Thanks

> You are first suppose to start the daemon through safe_mysqld which is
under the mysql bin/ directory, or through mysql.server which is under
mysql's share/ directory (info about both on the webpage)
> Running one of these will actually get your deamon running (and create the
desired /tmp/mysql.sock) and from then you can use the rest of the utilities
like mysqladmin.
