RE: Problem connecting

Here it is...

[root@chihuahua root]# mysql -uweb -hlocalhost -psecret planos
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 15 to server version: 4.1.10a-Max-log

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

mysql> quit
Bye
[root@chihuahua root]#

TIA

Last argument in command line is the database name,
thus password is invisible here and confusing.
Use no spaces after option key to be certain:
    mysql -uweb -hlocalhost -psecret planos

It sounds you have empty password set for user web@localhost.
Try
    SELECT host,user,password FROM user
to see what is actually set.
