thanks


Andre,
	Please could you check the following:

1.) ls -lad /tmp
2.) ls -l /etc/mysql/debian.cnf

3.) Then I have a more fundamental question. What application owns that 
GUI. It looks to me like mysql-gui-tools which has been obsoleted by 
mysql-workbench.
4.) Why you trying to connect as debian-sys-maint? It's only supposed to 
be accessed by the UNIX root user during upgades. Hence what I hope  is 
the answer to 2.	
5.) Do you have any other usrs on the database that you could use to 
verify access to the database?
