I can connect to the MySQL server (5.5) on the same computer

I don't know where to look in it.
I use MySQL Workbench for administrative purposes.

Here is the link to the manual:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/server-options.html#option_mysqld_skip-networking
Thanks for the link, but I already have it in ePUB format. My
problem is trying to determine what the manual means. It is very verbose!

It might be....
'skip-networking' in your config (read:my.cnf) means that MySQL will not
listen to any network interface. Yuou will still be able to connect to
localhost, because its something 'sepecial'
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Localhost
"The public releases of the MySQL database differentiate between
localhost and 127.0.0.1. When using localhost from a client program, say
a PHP application, then MySQL connects to the database using a Unix
domain socket rather than making a direct TCP connection[7][8]. To
ensure a TCP connection to the database in IPv4 then use 127.0.0.1."
