Why can't Shutdown the server?

[Varuna Seneviratna]

The command I used was
C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin\mysqladmin" -p root shutdown

Then the password was asked and I entered the correct password, But the
result was

C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin\mysqladmin: connect to server at
'lo
calhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'ODBC'@'localhost' (using password: YES)'




What am I missing here?
