I cant connect using 'mysqladmin', but using the same user/password can with 'mysql'? The user in question has been set up correctly with grant all from any host. Wouldn't normally be a problem but I have and application that needs to connect via 'mysqladmin'. ------------- [root@freeload mysql]# mysqladmin --user=freeloader --password=abc reload mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user: 'freeloader@localhost' (Using password: YES)' ------------- [root@freeload mysql]# mysql -u freeloader -p Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
