>Description:
        Installed:
          * MySQL-3.23.27-1.i386.rpm        MySQL-shared-3.23.27-1.i386.rpm
          * MySQL-client-3.23.27-1.i386.rpm MySQL-devel-3.23.27-1.i386.rpm

        #1)
        Had to use "--nodeps" so the server and client portions would pass
        the "/usr/bin/perl5" dependency check.  I tried doing

            # cd /usr/bin; ln perl perl5

        It would be nice if the dependency could be met by looking for any
        /usr/bin/perl5*.  (E.g.  my system has '/usr/bin/perl5.00503').


        #2)
        The installation script said to change the database password via:

            # /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p password 'new-password'
            # /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h pipek.truedisk.com -p password 
'new-password'

        It doesn't work!

>How-To-Repeat:
        1. Brand-new RedHat 6.2 installation ("server install").

        2. Apply all patches/updates released prior to Jan-17-2001.

        3. Install the MySQL RPM's

           # rpm -Uvh --nodeps MySQL-3.23.27-1.i386.rpm MySQL-shared-3.23.27-1.i386.rpm

        4. Try changing the password ...

           # /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p password newpass  
           Enter password:   
           /usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
           error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES)'
           # /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h pipek.truedisk.com -p password newpass
           Enter password: 
           /usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'pipek.truedisk.com' failed
           error: 'Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password:

           Note--typed "password" when prompted
