Good day/night/whatever fellow techies,
I've come to a small problem managing mysql on CentOS 4.7 box[1]. When I have done things on mysql on my desktop systems it was always just for personal use so I would be lazy and put everything under the "test" db so I didn't have to deal with all that security. But I find that I need to put some db's on the "production" box and could use a little assistance.
I can manage with the bulk of the work but since mysql is all pre-configured on RH based systems I don't know where to find the root password or any other tidbits needed to get started. Access to the grant and other admin db's and tables is all I believe I need. Looking through the docs on centos.org didn't reveal anything to me (or I just missed it).
So the end result of this message is simply can someone point me to the howto use mysql on CentOS/RHEL info. I just need to be able to start adding db's and such. Once there I'm good to go.
Thank you in advance, Joe
[1] I know, I should upgrade but, as I mentioned, I'm a real lazy guy.
