You did not create 'root'. You set the root password to 'therootpassword' Did you enter the same password you set? Enter Password : therootpassword

hi,experts:
I installed mysql (3.23.49, server & client) at my NT4.0 machine. As I unziped and set up mysql, everything seemed fine ( I used winmysqladmin to start mysqld-nt server). That mean that the mysql server is running.
However, when I create 'root' with mysqladmin command as follows:
-->g:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root password 'therootpassword'
and then try to see the status og mysql using following command:
-->g:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root -p status Enter Password: ************
I got the error message: mysqladmin: coonect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]' ,Using password: Yes>'
Are there any mis-configuration in my installing process. Can anyone show me how to fix this problem? Thanks.
