Description:
I've installed mysql on my linux 7.1 server (via RPMS) and it self-configured. It is 
now running however I can not connect to it. I keep getting the followingn error 
message:
mysqladmin: connect to server 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)'

This occurs whether I am root or mysql (user).

Can you assist?
