Login question
Per the MySQL documentation I used the following commands to establish login
both at the local host and remotely.
mysql SET PASSWORD FOR ''@'localhost' = PASSWORD('newpwd');
mysql SET PASSWORD FOR ''@'%' = PASSWORD('newpwd');
When I attempt the following locally from the Command Prompt (with Win2K,
SP4 administrator privileges),
mysql -u root -p
, I am prompted for the password. Yet, when I enter the password set above,
I receive the following error message.
ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES)
Argh... your help is appreciated.

because you are root, not ''

Re: Login question
Try
SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'localhost' = PASSWORD( 'newpwd' );
SET PASSWORD FOR 'root'@'%' = PASSWORD( 'newpwd' );
There was no username in your SET PASSWORD command.

Re: Login question
after you ran your command, did you:
mysql flush privileges;
?

Here, you set the password for the anonymous users, ''@localhost and ''@%.
(You are probably better off deleting the anonymous user, by the way.)
When I attempt the following locally from the Command Prompt (with Win2K,
SP4 administrator privileges),
mysql -u root -p
And here, you try to log in as [EMAIL PROTECTED] See the problem?
[EMAIL PROTECTED] is not ''@localhost.
, I am prompted for the password. Yet, when I enter the password set above,
I receive the following error message.
ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES)
[EMAIL PROTECTED] doesn't have a password yet. You need to
mysqladmin -u root password newpwd
where newpwd is the password you want for root.
After setting the password for [EMAIL PROTECTED], you can connect with
mysql -u root -p
I'd suggest that [EMAIL PROTECTED] is a bad idea, so I'd
DELETE FROM mysql.user WHERE user='root' AND host='%';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
but if you want it, you should definitely set a password for it as well.
In that case,
SET PASSWORD FOR [EMAIL PROTECTED] = PASSWORD('newpwd');
Argh... your help is appreciated.

Re: Login question
FLUSH PRIVILEGES is not necessary after SET PASSWORD or GRANT. You only
need to FLUSH PRIVILEGES when you edit the mysql tables directly (INSERT,
UPDATE, DELETE).

Re: Login question
In mysql, a user is a combination of user and hostname. Initially, there are 2 superusers, [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] They have the same privileges, but they are different users. [EMAIL PROTECTED] is for connections via unix socket (from the same machine on which the mysql server is running). [EMAIL PROTECTED] is for tcp/ip connections. As % is a wildcard, [EMAIL PROTECTED] can log into mysql from any machine in the world. Not a good idea! If you must allow superuser connections from other machines, you are better off limiting the allowed hosts as much as possible. Replace [EMAIL PROTECTED] with [EMAIL PROTECTED], for example, where xxx.yy.zz is your subnet.

command line login question
Hi, I am trying to create a script that automatically logs in to mysql and chooses a db then runs a query. I can login fine when doing it this way: mysql -u user -p it then asks for a pass and it works. but if I try this: mysql -u user -ppassword dbname I get an access error. any suggestions?

login question
I was wondering if anyone knows of a way to make a mysql server running on red hat linux authenticate using nt pass through (something like samba does it) or possibly ldap. I am new to mysql so this may be very easy to do I just don't know how. It also might be impossible. Just wondering if anyone had any ideas.
