Hi,
After I installed rpm packages on my system, I am unable to connect to the 
databse. I have installed in the following order
1)Server
2)Client
3)Devel
4)Shared Compat

After starting the databse with:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysql start

I am unable to login as:
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password'

The following error occurs:
/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'

Please Help Me.
