| | I installed SuSE Linux 9.1 Professional on an old computer recently. I installed MySQL server (version 4.0.18), Webmin (version 1.250) and Usermin (version 1.180). If I try to connect to the MySQL server with the username root and no password, I get an invalid login error from Webmin, Usermin and mysql-cc. What is the default password, and how can I change it? I am very excited to be learning Linux (after a long journey through Windows-land), but get frustrated on loopholes like these.
Also, an a different note, why would the system stop loading after a certain point (towards the end, don't remeber where) if I have my USB drive plugged in before booting? |

The initial Mysql password is blank according to this info for mysql ver 5.0. YOU WILL HAVE TO READ THE MANUAL FOR YOUR SPECIFIC VERSION. One of the first things they reccomend is to set a new root password and run the Grant table which controls access to the Database. QUOTE After a fresh installation, you should connect to the server and set up your users and their access permissions:
shell> mysql -u root mysql
The server should let you connect because the MySQL root user has no password initially. That is also a security risk, so setting the password for the root accounts is something you should do while you're setting up your other MySQL users. For instructions on setting the initial passwords, see Section 2.9.3, “Securing the Initial MySQL Accounts”. The manuals are available at mysql.com either for online reading or by downloading. If you have installed it locally, probably best to download it. Hope this helps.

The default user is root and the password is, as they say blank for default. You can set the root password by typing this: CODE # mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password' You can then login by typing this: CODE # mysql -u root –p Then you'll be prompted to provide the password you specified earlier. You also might want to delete the anonymous user in the User's table. The default configuration of MySQL allows any user access to the system without providing a username or password. Delete the user by typing this: CODE # mysql -u root –p
mysql> use mysql
mysql> delete from user where User='';
mysql> quit
