Hello,

I'm a newbe to Linux and MySQL, but I'm finding it very interesting.

I'll cut right to the chase - I've followed the directions in the manual for the 
binary install on Linux.  but every time I start up the mysql daemon and do a pstree 
-laup, it's running as root.
 
This is on a development / play machine so it's not that big a deal, but my system 
admin says that I have to run it as user=mysql.

I've tried changing the mysql.server script, the my.cnf file, etc.  I cant figure it 
out  - how to make it start up and run as user=mysql!?!

Anywho - any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, 

Sean.
