[cobalt-users] raq2 mysql password

[RyRuns@xxxxxxx]

I have a RAQ2 and installed mysql.  The mysql password can't be set!  Logged in as root user I should be able to use the '/usr/bin/mysqladmin' file to set a password.  I always get this error:

/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)'

Assuming I wanted the password to be 'web6680' exaclty what do I type to set it?  Do I need to do something beyond logging in as root before setting the password?

Thanks, Ryan McKillen
