That part fails here: # mysql -uroot -p Enter password: <root passwd entered> ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES) ============== But trying from my user shell: I at least can log in. > mysql Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 9 Server version: 5.0.44-log Gentoo Linux mysql-5.0.44-r2 Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.
