Re: [cobalt-users] MYSQL beginners help

[Marco Baurdoux <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

or you can SSH/telnet into your pizza box and then as "admin" issue this
command :
mysqladmin -u root -p password jgdhdasihas6

Followed by the old password that was set.
If you used the RPMS directly from mysql.com then this password will be
empty other wise it's the one coming from the cobalt package, which I
believe is cobalt-user, but I'm not sure on this one.
