When I run
# mysql
I get this error:
ERROR 2002 (HY000): Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)
What do I need to do? The install of MySQL was done as part of the Centos setup.

When I submit
# /sbin/service mysqld start
I get the message: mysqld unrecognized service
When I type in
# yum install mysql
I am told it is already installed. Also, the GUI for services does not have mysql listed. How I can tell if mysql is truly installed?

yum list "mysql*"
will probably give you the hint you need.

Try with:
usr/bin/mysqld_safe --user=mysql &
Replace usr/bin/ with the right path to mysqld_safe
As far as I recall you need to have the client installation too to make it work. You can check if you have it already installed by accessing the man page for mysqld_safe
