/var/run/mysqld must have mysql:mysql permissions (drwxr-xr-x) > And make /etc/my.cnf a symlink to /etc/mysql/my.cnf > CLI utilities probably look for /etc/my.cnf No, this is not needed. CLI programs will use whatever the mysql default is, and mysql is compiled under gentoo with /etc/mysql/my.cnf as default.
