Question Error: can't exec "mysql_config": No such file

I installed movabletype and then ran the mt-check.cgi file and it showed that i needed DBD::mysql. I ran cpan and I get the infamous error:

"Can't exec "mysql_config": No such file or directory at Makefile.PL line 174. readLine() on closed filehandle PIPE at Makefile.PL line 176. Failed to determine directory of mysql.h"

When i do a locate mysql_config nothing shows up. When I do a
rpm -qa | grep -i mysql I get the following:

MySQL-client-4.0.18-0
MySQL-server4.0.18-0

Now, I can run mysql just fine and have created databases, so I know it's working on my system. I've done some googles for this error and have seen this problem, but I can't seem to find a solution. Any tips?
