There is a difference between "localhost" and "socket" access. Probably if you're running a new installation, you want to access root by the mysql.sock file on the server.
mysql -u root -p -S /tmp/mysql.sock That file is placed in a location that depends on your particular distro. Look for it under /var/run, /var/mysql, or just do 'find / -name mysql.sock' if you have no idea. -rich _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
