How did you create users?

"Unable to connect" is a too short error message. What is the full
message?

It means that you didn't used password when you tried to connect.
So, if you want to connect to the MySQL server you should use:
    mysql -u<user_name> -p<password>

or for mysqladmin:
    mysqladmin -u<user_name> -p<password> command

You can find description of syntax at:

    http://www.mysql.com/doc/m/y/mysqladmin.html
