That's because you have a password setup for the MySQL user 'root' (this is
a good thing), but you didn't supply it.  Be glad that MySQL works this way.
Otherwise anyone would have access to your MySQL databases.

mysqladmin --help

or

mysqladmin flush-hosts -u root -p (then supply password at prompt)

FYI, this isn't a Cobalt specific question.  You'd probably get better,
faster help on the mysql list or from searching the MySQL archives.  After
all, anyone on those lists is there to discuss one thing specifically -
MySQL.
