Hello List:

I have setup MySQL and it is working fine. I tested connection to MySQL. 

Now I have gone one step futher and added a password for mysql, as follows:

shell> ./mysqladmin -u root password mysqlpw

Now I want to setup myc.cnf. Our SQL server is a standalone server (RH9,
Dual CPU, 1.5GB Memory, RAID1, etc.), so I copied the "my-large.cnf" to
"/etc/my.cnf". After looking into "my.cnf", I decided to leave it as it is
(no change). I do want to add the (1) name of the server and (2) password to
the my.cnf. Here I am struck for last couple of days.

Finally, here is my question; I want to execute the command:

      shell> mysql -h data -u mysql password=mysqlpw

Where (from above command), mysql server is "data" and password is
"mysqlpw". What lines do I need to enter in my.cnf for the above command to
work? I have tried everything I know! HELP!!

KIrti
