I tried to go into mysql with root and the password I had set, and access was 
refused.

I finally gave up and decided to reset the root password using the techniques 
described on
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/resetting-permissions.html

This is a linux machine running mysql Your MySQL connection id is 5 to server 
version: 4.1.7-standard

I have tried both the mysqld_safe --init-file=/home/iepm/v3src/minit which has 
the password setting statement in it

And this does not work...I cannot get into mysql with the password.

I have also tried mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables --user=root &

And tried setting the password and doing flush privileges.

This also does not work.

I am at my wits end as to how to do this, which I have been able to do before.

Any insight and assistance would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Connie
