I don't see how to submit 'blahblah;;' using the quotes. I've tried
mysql -u root and then typed all the conceivable combinations for password and mysql -u root --password=blahblah;; and mysql -u root --password='blahblah;;' What's worse is that I've looked at the raw table file and confirmed that the password is blahblah;; I could change it manually, but I don't want to corrupt the table (I assume that's a real possibility). -- tried that on a dev machine, it doesn't work because I can't flush the privileges. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
