I have been reading and following the instructions from:
http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Resetting_permissions.html

But, if I do:
./bin/mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables
And then I:
mysqladmin -u root password 'mypassword'
I get:
mysqladmin: unable to change password; error: 'You must have privileges to update 
tables in the mysql database to be able to change passwords for others'

this is a 3.2 install that was working just fine but I just did an upgrade to 4.1.  I 
think I did the ?update permissions? script ok when I did the install.  But is this 
the problem?
