After loging in mysql as root, enter the command:
SET PASSWORD FOR root=password('the_new_password');

like this? :
mysqladmin -u root -p'newpasswd' ? (without a space between -p and
'newpasswd' ?)
and, if that is correct, I guess I'd then be presented with a prompt
for the old passwd, right?
Then, the new one would take effect?
