Instalation problem

[Rafael M Santos]

Dear friends,

            I'm trying to install MySQL-3.23.51-1.i386.rpm and MySQL-client-3.23.51-1.i386.rpm in my red hat 7.2 with kernel-2.4.7-10.

 

Then, when the instalation tells me about the success of this operation, I try to use the command:

>>/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h lerschsrv3 -p password 'new-password'

But it returns:

>>Enter password:

I have put all possible passwords, like, my root password, "mysql", 1234, 123456, "password", none, and always It gives me this result:

 

/usr/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'lerschsrv3' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: 'address@hidden' (Using password: YES)'

What is happening??

Webmin gives me the same problem.

Can you help me??

 

Sorry about my english, I'm Brazilian ad do not speak a good english.

Thank you since now for everything.
