I just wanna chime in here with a quick explanation of what is going on, so that it doesn't seem so arbitrary. In the public beta, the root password was set to be the same as the first user you created. This is bad for a number of reasons, but this is why you could use 'su' with your own passwor

Thank you. /usr/local/var does indeed exist - perhaps it was created during the MySQL setup (all of the files in it -- using 'sudo ls...' -- are MySQL files). I want to be able to get to this file (and the directory) so that I can create a file directly from MySQL (or read one in from a tab-
