Remove all References to Using the user "root: when Connecting to a MySQL 
Database
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MIFOS-2850
                 URL: http://mifosforge.jira.com/browse/MIFOS-2850
             Project: mifos
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Authentication
    Affects Versions: Release 1.4, Gazelle C
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Graeme Ruthven


The instructions in the INSTALL file included with both 1.4.2 and Gazelle C use 
"root" in section 3.2 of the accompanying INSTALL file.

This is repeated in mainDatabase.properties.

This is very poor security practice and does not reflect the instructions on 
the Mifos Ubuntu Install wiki page on www.mifos.org.

I strongly recommend that all samples, examples and instructions are altered to 
remove references to using the root user for connection to any of the mifos 
databases. "mifos" or "mifosuser" would be more suitable.
