Dear All,

The mysql client & mysql-devel packages did it. Was able to change the password which I did with a very easy one. Now when I want to change the existing password & it fails. It does not let me. Thanks agaiN!

Ok. So far I got advises to install the MySQL-client package & the mysql-devel RPM. Will do that & report back. I wouldn't think all that was needed when the MySQL-server-rpm was installed. The functionality to assign a password should be there. I'm such a newbie at this, thanks to all again!

Installed the MySQL-server-4.0.20-0.i386.rpm on a RHL8 system

Initialized the grant tables and then did: /usr/bin/mysqladmin -u rt password ACTUALPASSWORD And got: -bash: /usr/bin/mysqladmin: No such file or directory

What gives mates? I had used the exact command before in another RHL8 system but it was a tar.gz package, I think.

How can I changed or apply a password to mysql?

Also, are there any other post-installation things to do after a Mysql installation? Newbie here. I'd like to know how to make Mysql secure & more efficient.

Install MySQL-client package.
