hello everybudy, i have a little problem with mysqld.
The mysql deamon is on and i do exactly what it say's to me at the end 
of the installation :
" /usr/pkg/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p password 'new-password' ", but it 
always answer to me :
" /usr/pkg/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: NO)"
i am not root when i use the command and at last sometimes it's the same 
message instead of (Using password: YES).
I don't understand. is the mysql root user have to be in the mysql group  ?

is someone as an idea, thanks.
