I used all three methods in the end. Entered `/tmp/mysql.sock’ 
in both config.inc.php & php.ini & used 127.0.0.1 instead of 
localhost & I’m in.

Thanks for all the help & apologies for being a bit slow on this 
one (I should’ve known not to point my default socket to 
`/opt/local/var/run/mysql5/` because the directory doesn’t 
exist on my machine not having used MacPorts to install MySQL).

Cheers,

     Phil.
