MYSQL connection problem (correction re-post)

[mario.lobo at ipad.com.br]

Sorry for this :( . Correction marked with  " <=====**** "

I typed a my.cnf from another machine. only the port differs.

==============
Yeah, it is the only one on that port. The worst part is that the connection attempt doesn´t even 
generates a log entry !! I looked into the log also !!

netstat -an  | grep LIST
tcp4       0      0  *.5007                 *.*                    LISTEN
tcp4       0      0  *.199                  *.*                    LISTEN
tcp4       0      0  *.443                  *.*                    LISTEN
tcp4       0      0  *.80                   *.*                    LISTEN
tcp4       0      0  127.0.0.1.25           *.*                    LISTEN
tcp4       0      0  *.22                   *.*                    LISTEN

here is my.cnf

[mysqld]
datadir=/bd/mysql/data
socket=/home/xxxxxxx/mysql/mysql.sock

port=5007         <=====****

set-variable = max_connections=2000

[mysql.server]
user=xxxxxxx
basedir=/bd/

[safe_mysqld]
err-log=/home/xxxxxxx/mysql/mysqld.log
pid-file=/home/xxxxxxx/mysql/mysqld.pid
