Ah yes, I tried those doc's first.: menem:/home/mark# mysqladmin -u root password 'secret' mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: NO)'
And I swear to you, I never set a password! I freshly installed mysql, and I cannot access it. Could this be a DNS problem? (When I ping localhost, I do get respons from 127.0.0.1) I'm at a loss...
