Thanks for your time.
I disabled replication (slave stop), removed the master.info file (it did
contain a wrong/old password), stopped the mysqld (mysqladmin -p shutdown),
and restarted it (safe_mysqld &).
The information in master.info is correct now, but still it gets an access
denied. The password is right, the user is right, the hostname is right..
sigh.
