I've just installed MySQL version 4.0.13 On A Windows 2000 machine, using
the
binary distribution. I installed mysqld-nt as a service and started it using
'net start mysql'.

I tried to set a password for 'root' using:

mysqladmin -u root -h localhost password
followed by:
mysqladmin -u root -h localhost reload

I then tried to log in using:

mysql -u root -h localhost -p
and entered my chosen password when prompted. I got:
"Access denied for user 'root@127.0.0.1'

However, I can still log in anonymously using
mysql -u root -h localhost

I'd be most grateful if anyone could suggest what might be wrong.

I've recently converted to Windows Active Directory. Could this have
anything to
do with it? I could run MySQL before.

Please disregard my earlier posting on this subject. I've since solved the

No problem, thanks for informing us. Would you mind explaining, what you
did to solve your problem? We do have another bug report that looks
similar to yours:

http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=464

We just want to make sure, that there is no real bug in 4.0.13 to this
regard. Thanks!

Bye,
