Newbie ACID config problem

I feel kind of silly asking what is probably a very simple question, but I'm
new to linux and snort...so I apologize if this seems like a no-brainer.

I'm trying to get ACID to work on a linux/mysql box. I can get snort to run
just fine and it logs to the database without a hitch, but when I try to run
ACID via Netscape, I get the following error message:
Warning: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket
'/tmp/mysql.sock' (111) in /home/httpd/html/adodb/adodb-mysql-inc.php on
line 85.

Since I'm new to linux, I'm not entirely sure where to fix this. I can
connect to the MySQL database through the MySQL client, but that seems to
use /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql.sock for the socket connection...not the
/tmp/mysql.sock. Of course, looking in the adodb-mysql-inc.php file, I
didn't find any reference to the /tmp/socket.  Any help would be greatly
appreciated.  Thanks in advance!
