Nadeem,
I also tried this on RHEL 4, but get the same error as on RHEL 3. I did a locate mysql and found lots of files containing "mysql", but nothing called "mysqld".
The default installation hasnt installed MySQL-server packages.
Is there an issue with RHEL and the mysql server? Do I have to install it separately?
Yes thats right. go to mysql.com/downloads to download RPMs for the relevant distribution and install them.
