i recall i've managed to set up a connection to MySQL server using account root with the "password" item blank in Kdevelop. when i invoke mysqlaccess -uroot -p, it returned a prompt for password, i just hit return, but failed this time. mysqladmin -uroot got the same suituation with the error 111. i'm sure the default port 3306 isn't blocked by firewall, since i can access the server with the tool mysql. any port else invovled? thank u.
