Just got mysql running (Ithink) on Redhat Linux 7. The version is
mysqladmin  Ver 8.8 Distrib 3.23.22-beta, for redhat-linux-gnu on i386
TCX Datakonsult AB, by Monty

Server version          3.23.22-beta-log
Protocol version        10
Connection              Localhost via UNIX socket
UNIX socket             /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock

So how do I change/add passwords for the users and how do I add users?
I tried 'mysqladmin password newpassword' (where newpassword is my password)
The response I get is: 'mysqladmin: unable to change password; error: 'You are
using MySQL as an anonym' '
So then I switch to superuser and try again.
The response I get is: 'mysqladmin: unable to change password; error: 'Table
'user' is read only' '
I try : 'mysqladmin -password newpassword'
The response is: 'mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)'

So how the heck do I do this??

Thanks
