I read the manual plus look on the site. I been having trouble setting up a
password for root.
here's the message i get.

First I run this

$mysql_install_db

$mysqladmin -u root -p password 'newpassword'

Enter password:  < I enter the password same as above >

mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed

error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)'

now can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong. I download the

MySQL-3.23.33-1.i386.rpm
MySQL-bench-3.23.33-1.i386.rpm
MySQL-client-3.23.33-1.i386.rpm
MySQL-devel-3.23.33-1.i386.rpm
MySQL-shared-3.23.33-1.i386.rpm


Thank you for the help

Luis
