now, How can I set the password for root?
I have read all the message here, but no one
can solve the problem, even the
tutorial/readme file from www.mysql.com.
pls just assume that I have just installed the
DBMS, and do nothing. what's the step to
set the password of root on NT4?
step 1: ..
step 2: ...
step 3: ....
step 4: .....
Step 1: Read the manual.
Step 2: Follow the instructions in the manual.
Seriously, the manual does a very good job of telling you exactly how to
do this, in quite a few places. For example, from section 4.12.4
("Running MySQL on Win32"):
You should also add a password for the root user:
C:\mysql\bin\mysqladmin -u root password your_password
The manual is your friend. Use it frequently.
Hope this helps!
