I've just installed MySQL version 4.0.13 On A Windows 2000 machine, using
the binary distribution. I installed mysqld-nt as a service and started it
using 'net start mysql'.
I tried to set a password for 'root' using:
mysqladmin -u root -h localhost password <passwd>
followed by:
mysqladmin -u root -h localhost reload
I then tried to log in using:
mysql -u root -h localhost -p
and entered my chosen password when prompted. I got:
"Access denied for user 'root [at] 127.0.0.1'
However, I can still log in anonymously using
mysql -u root -h localhost
I'd be most grateful if anyone could suggest what might be wrong.
I've recently converted to Windows Active Directory. Could this have
anything to do with it? I could run MySQL before.
