Hi After installing MySQL-3.23.52-1.i386.rpm the following is displayed:
PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER ! This is done with: /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password' /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h <myhostname> password 'new-password' See the manual for more instructions. . . However, when I attempt to run the second of these I get the following error: [root@<myhostname> root]# mysqladmin -u root -h <myhostname> <mypassword> mysqladmin: connect to server at '<myhostname>' failed error: 'Host '<myhostname>' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server' Any help appreciated.
