apparently I can connect to mySQL, as a under privilege user,
but can't created a new database, after two days, of getting this far,
Now what?

So, I did the
[MacG4a:~] rnagle% mysql -u root
ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)
[MacG4a:~] rnagle%
Which is suppose to be the ALL Mighty COMMAND to get in,

I even try to shutdown the server, (NO kill - 9 here !) can't
according the online manual,

Take down the mysqld server by sending a kill (not kill -9) to the mysqld server. The pid is stored in a `.pid' file, which is normally in the MySQL database directory:

shell> kill `cat /mysql-data-directory/hostname.pid`


did that, with
[MacG4a:~] rnagle% shell > kill `cat /usr/local/mysql-3.23.53/data/MacG4a.local.pid'
Unmatched `.
[MacG4a:~] rnagle% shell > kill `cat /usr/local/mysql-3.23.53/data/MacG4a.local..pid'
Unmatched `.
[MacG4a:~] rnagle%

[MacG4a:~] rnagle% shell > kill `cat /mysql-data-directory/MacG4a.local.pid'
Unmatched `.
[MacG4a:~] rnagle%

[MacG4a:~] rnagle% mysqladmin shutdown
mysqladmin: shutdown failed; error: 'Access denied for user: '@localhost' (Using password: NO)'
[MacG4a:~] rnagle%

[MacG4a:local/mysql/data] rnagle% pwd
/usr/local/mysql-3.23.53/data
[MacG4a:local/mysql/data] rnagle% ls -al
total 16
drwxr-x--- 6 mysql wheel 204 Dec 29 18:34 .

Somewhere over the rainbow, the has to be a way to get access.
Anyone, ( was going to do a restart, with options:Restart mysqld with the --skip-grant-tables option.
can't even get there.

Any Help would be appreciated, THANKS-!
Rick
