Yeah, if I try to connect to mysql using my domain name, or localhost, i see
that Socket related InvalidCastException that you noted.  If i point my
mysql connection towards the local unix socket, it works correctly.  My
issue then arises later when i try to make a WebClient call.

I noticed that in my 2.0 machine.config, the connectionManagement section is
now missing, while it existed in 2.2.  I tried adding this back, but it
didn't seem to fix anything.  I also tried adding it to the system.net
element in my app.config with no effect.  

If you figure this out, please post your resolution.  I will do the same.

Hopefully someone on the mono team can chime in with an answer... :)
