okay, I'm having problems here, probably something very simple I'm overlooking: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --prefix=/usr/local \ --localstatedir=/usr/local/mysql/data make make install mkdir /usr/local/mysql/data mkdir /usr/local/mysql/tmp cd /usr/local/mysql/bin/ mysql_install_db /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p password 'newpassword' /usr/local/mysql/bin/safe_mysql & starts, but still doesn't let root connect via localhost ===== -- Anthony Ettinger [EMAIL PROTECTED] 415-504-8048 http://chovy.com/resume.doc __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
