Hi there, For some reason, despite entering my passwords in ~/.my.cnf, I still have to enter a password on the command line to login to mysql. I have tried this with each of the accounts I have created and all return the same error:
$ mysql -u sebyte ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES) What am I doing wrong? Here are the accounts I have created, and below that is my ~/.my.cnf. I have 'x'ed out my actual passwords in this post but is there something wrong with the syntax I am using. I have verified that the file IS being read each time I attempt to login. Any help much appreciated.
