Are you sure? mysql> select Host,User,Password from user where user = 'mysql'; +-----------+-------+-------------------------------------------+ | Host | User | Password | +-----------+-------+-------------------------------------------+ | localhost | mysql | *2470C0C06DEE42FD1618BB99005ADCA2EC9D1E19 | | 127.0.0.1 | mysql | | +-----------+-------+-------------------------------------------+ 2 rows in set (0.00 sec) I have nothing against removing crap from packages, but please test it first if you want to remove it. I just don't want to wake up with a mysql install without a password ;) Janek -- Jan Rekorajski | ALL SUSPECTS ARE GUILTY.
