Hi,
I'm using mysql-server-3.23.58-4 on a Linux (Fedora 1) machine,
and I'm new to databases/MySQL.
After reading the security section of the manual from
http://dev.mysql.com, I added passwords for the 'root' accounts.
However, now the startup script (/etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld) fails.
I tried adding:
[mysql.server]
password=xxx
into /etc/my.cnf
but it did not help.
How do I set the password for the startup script ?
Thanks,
John.
