issue with my.cfg

[dan orlic]

i have an issue with my.cfg.  I am trying to change the value of 
wait_timeout.  it's default value is
28800., my install is 4.0.15.  As i understand it, the my.cfg file needs 
to be in /etc dir.  the entry i have in it is
set wait_timeout = 600000;
that did nothing,  i tried wait_timeout = 600000 and that did nothing... 
actually the server would not even start,

any advice on this would be great, thanks.
