Socket problem :(

Hi all... Ok, I really stepped on it today. I deleted "mysql.sock". After a few minutes of good southern cussn' I copyed it from another system. But now I get this error: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111) As far as I can tell the durn thing is back the way it was before I messed it up. Can anyone give me a clue on how to fix sockets?
