See:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0...am-options.html
I agree, some times it takes some time find the configuration file.
show variables like '%dir%' should help you.

I've seen the systems where mysqld is started in a similar way. However,
I usually prefer to work with properly configured mysql.server script
(due its ability to do restart of the server in an elegant way :) See:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0...atic-start.html
> Also now i cannot write mysqldump without the path .
Does it mean that you're unable to invoke mysqldump without specifying
the path to it? Check your $PATH environment variable.
