--- Reçu de RVIDOI.BUNTERMA 04 72 96 57 77 12/03/02 16.45 I tried the blank password by hitting enter instead of entering text with no luck - same rejection. I shall try updating the table. I thought that passwords could only be changed with mysqladmin. The password will be unencrypted in the table won't it?
Matt P.S. I have not recieved any mails from this list since joining on the 25th Feb - is it normally this quiet? ------------------------------------------------------------------ Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2002 15:39:10 -0000 Subject: RE: MySQL 3.23.41 on RH7.2 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?
