Hi all After installing mysql with apt get and set the root password I have to set the root password with my hostname like this mysqladmin -h server1.wintam.lan -u root password ******* I get the folowing response mysqladmin: connect to server at 'server1.wintam.lan' failed error: 'Lost connection to MySQL server during query' So I tried mysqladmin -h server1 -u root password ******* this gave me: mysqladmin: connect to server at 'server1' failed error: 'Host 'localhost.localdomain' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server' How can I fix this? What is the cause of this? tank you.
Yes i have readed that to but still. I would like to know the cause of this? Why is the command not working? What are the things I probably have messed up so that command won't work? tanks in advance?
The command was added later to the tutorial because we had missed it at first. We didn't test it again, so it's possible that it's in the wrong place. However, it should give you the idea what has to be done.
