mysql problems
I just installed the mysql using this
http://pkg.nl.cobalt.com/i386/RaQ3-R...-3.23.37-1.pkg
file.. and then telnetted and change the password..
now I have forgotten the password..
I tried uninstalling the mysql with the help of this tutorial..
http://pkg.nl.cobalt.com/howto/cobal...all_howto.html
but mysql is still over there..
what to do now ?
I am getting confused..
Thanks,

What did the uninstall instructions tell you?
What did the uninstall instructions tell you to do?
Also when you say mysql is still there do you mean?
A) you can still see it in the cobalt pkg panel
Or
B) once you reinstall the pkg your old password is there and not the standard password?

Omair,
If MySQL is indeed still installed;
Check out the MySQL manual for instructions on how to reset the root pw:

Alright...
Well the easiest way I can think of while maybe not the quickest is...
1st uninstall the mysql pkg...
after it is uninstalled go into /home/mysql
type rd -rf mysql (this deletes the mysql database, and all tables....
verify by typing ls and making sure mysql is gone (keep in mind this all deletes all users, so if you have any existing database the users, and permissions will be wiped out for them as well...)
then do a reinstall of the pkg... That will get you back to your install admin password... if someone else has another way, that is quicker or easier join in...
hope it helps...

I'm going to have to get back to you
I will have to get back to you on mysql.... If I am not mistaken that with a raq4i from 4webspace that you only get one ip with the box and you have to order them in blocks of 30 for $10 bucks... at least that is what the sales rep told me?

Probably a typo - he meant "rm" instead of "rd".
Please beware that this is a very dangerous command.

Disclaimer: I know very little about any of this so if this isn't helpful, you'll know why.
localhost - from what you asked I'd say yes, and generally you'd just leave it as 'localhost' unless you are going to connect to a different machine.
