This installation resides on a Windows 2003 server to which I have local
admin rights.
What is the most painless way to get "root" access to this database?
I am more than willing to RTFM, if anyone will point me at which FM to read.

Hi -
I've always used the startup option of '--skip-grant-tables'. This may

I do this, then update the Password field in the mysql.user table.
