Sorry, forgot to include this :

[admin admin]$ ps auxw | grep mysqld
root     11073  0.0  0.1  1672  824 pts/0    S    01:12   0:00 sh
/usr/bin/safe_mysqld --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --pid-file=/var/lib/
mysql    11096  0.0  0.2 11568 1432 pts/0    S    01:12   0:00
/usr/sbin/mysqld --basedir=/ --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --user=mysql --
mysql    11098  0.0  0.2 11568 1432 pts/0    S    01:12   0:00
/usr/sbin/mysqld --basedir=/ --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --user=mysql --
mysql    11099  0.0  0.2 11568 1432 pts/0    S    01:12   0:00
/usr/sbin/mysqld --basedir=/ --datadir=/var/lib/mysql --user=mysql --
admin    12307  0.0  0.0  1364  508 pts/0    S    01:36   0:00 grep mysqld
[admin admin]$

Presumably the "root" on line one shows it's running as root?  this
paragraph in the book is extremely sketchy.
