Hi Guys,

I just installed mysql from mandrake CD RPM's.

What's the default username and password for mysql...???

There is no default passwd for both. Just switch to root and create the passwrods you need. At command line: mysql -u root

This will drop you into the mysql command line:

I don't remember the exact command there, but do consider the page www.mysql.com --> developer zone --> documentation(searchable with user comments) --> Search for the command GRANT

It will give you all the info you need.

Peace!
