I am having problems loging into the server. Code: admin@monitorwaves:/etc/mysql$ mysqladmin -u root password bondsql007 mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)' admin@monitorwaves:/etc/mysql$ mysqladmin -u root -p bondsql007 Enter password: mysqladmin: Unknown command: 'bondsql007' admin@monitorwaves:/etc/mysql$ Code: admin@monitorwaves:/etc/mysql$ netstat -tap (Not all processes could be identified, non-owned process info will not be shown, you would have to be root to see it all.)

As you can see in your first quote, your syntax starting mysql is not correct. Start is with mysql -u root -p and hit enter, type you pwd then if it asks you for. Never post your passwords here, sb. just need to find an url on your server, with e.g. phpMyAdmin and may have fun with your DB....
