Can someone please explain why I have 3 entries for root or if this is normal behavior for MySQL? I thought after a installation of MySQL, you normally have 2:
1 - localhost 2 - host.domain.com For some reason I had a 3rd entry: 3 - 127.0.0.1 I don't know if I did the right thing but I ran the following command: update user set host="localhost" where host='127.0.0.1'; This basically changed the 127.0.0.1 entry in mysql databased, host section to localhost. I am not sure if MySQL needs to have the 3rd host entry for root that equals 127.0.0.1 or if it generally should just have the localhost and fqdn.
