Hi all:
Long time ago I've installed MySQL on my Debian Machine and I'm pretty sure I did'n
left the sa pwd blank as recommended.
Now, I'm installing other apps that need that sa pwd in order to be installed
properly butI can't remember the pwd.
is possible to recover the sa password?

You need to stop your MySQL process and then startup MySQL without the
grant tables (skip-grant-tables option). You can then change the
password.
Here some documentation on how to do it in Windows, but it's pretty
much the same for Unix.
