After a fresh installation, WinMySQLAdmin uses the default root user and try a connection to insert a new user. This user and his password are save in the my.ini file.

Then if you don't have the root user and the user added by the tool in the grant tables and in the my.ini file, the tool isn't more able to connect.

I am working on Win98 using MySQL server 3.23.28-gamma, client 3.23.22-beta.

If I put a password on the root account and remove the anonymous user winmysqladmin can't connect to the database anymore. I can't find any info on what config file changes I can make to allow winmysqladmin to login under those circumstances. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
