Nevermind.  I just had to use root's OS password.

How do I initially connect to mysql on linux.   I've successfully installed
from the rpm and the daemon is up and running.  If I try to connect to root
without a password, I get the following message:

error: 'Access denied for user: root@localhost (Using password: NO)'



Is there a password for root initially?  How do I set if it I can't connect?

Thanks.
