I reset my mysqld root password, as follows:
in shell 1:
# rcmysql stop
# killall mysqld
# mysqld --skip-grant-tables --user=root
in shell 2:
mysql
mysql> USE mysql
mysql> UPDATE user
-> SET password=password("new password") [put p/w between quotes]
-> WHERE user="root";
mysql> flush privileges;
mysql> exit;
su (then password)
#killall mysqld
exit
exit
All fixed. Thanks everyone!
Carl
