Hello,

I just reinstalled Red Hat 6.2 and reinstalled MySQL 3.23.38 and got the
following message as usual:

PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER !
This is done with:
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -p password 'new-password'
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h tulip.math.ualberta.ca -p password 'new-password'
See the manual for more instructions.

But I think the message is still not right because the right message is:

PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER !
This is done with:
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password'
/usr/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h tulip.math.ualberta.ca password 'new-password'
See the manual for more instructions.

The -p really should be taken out of there.
If the mysql developers would like I can send them a fixed RPM spec file.

Thanks!

Neil
