Re: ERROR 2013 (HY000): Lost connection to MySQL server at 'sending authentication information', system error: 32

Some more input:
- the warnings on the log are "Got timeout reading communication packets"
- I am using skip-networking (using unix sockets)
- load average is low, memory is free
- mysqld version is 5.0.45 (centos default), though I doubt it's a mysqld problem.

What can cause a communication timeout on skip-networking?


#
# mysqld log file
#
$tail -n200 /var/log/mysqld.log | grep "Warning"
090608 3:12:39 [Warning] Aborted connection 1160 to db: '***' user: '**' host: 'localhost' (Got timeout reading communication packets)
090608 3:12:39 [Warning] Aborted connection 1162 to db: '***' user: '**' host: 'localhost' (Got timeout reading communication packets)
