Hi,
I'm trying to set the root password for mysql using
mysqladmin -u root password <new_pass>
but all I'm getting back is
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'
mysqld is running
/etc/hosts has the following
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain T7.linux localhost T7
Any ideas?
Using fc4t2, mysql-4.1.11-2
TTFN
