You could just log on and use update on the user table... Or try entering a blank password?

Server is running, I can connect as root with no password. I attempt : mysqladmin -u root -p password 'newpassword' I get : Enter password : blahblahblah root@localhost rejected I looked at the user table and there are blank spaces for root both on the machine name and for localhost. Why can I not change the password for root? Any ideas?
