Perhaps I haven't made myself clear.
It's the MySQL database root password that I'm trying to change (not the password of the MySQL system user).
Yes, I can login to the system as root. I know how to change any user's password. I've told many a member on this forum how to boot from DVD and reset root passwords.
I know plenty about Solaris but I'm dumb on MySQL.
You will need to spell it out clearly as I'm no MySQL expert.
Thanks.
