1. Finally, -p tells the mysql client that you will be entering a password to access your database
2. mysql> drop database test; mysql> use mysql; mysql> delete from db; mysql> delete from user where not (host="localhost" and user="root"); mysql> flush privileges
3. user;; mysql> SELECT Host, Db, User, Select_priv FROM mysql
4. Decide which permissions you will have to give to the user on what database
5. You may make database connections using the username/password combinations you set in the step above
6. The MySQL database server is very popular for building web applications, it is often used in combination with the PHP language
7. create a user which has read-only access on all tables in the database called 'test': GRANT SELECT ON test
8. On a default settings, mysql root user do not need a password to authenticate from localhost
9. You can directly update a password using the following method to update or change passwords:2) Use the mysql database (type commands at the mysql> prompt): mysql> use mysql; 3) Change password for a user: mysql> update user set password=PASSWORD("newpass") where User='YOUR-USER-NAME';
10. In addition to performing database administration tasks by logging your MySQL service account

no solution as far as i can tell.



encryption is done to prevent people from knowin the passwords

More Information:

1. Having CREATE USER administration rights allows you to create users in the MySQL database
2. All mysql tasks including setting the root password and creating databases can be done via a graphical interface using phpmyadmin or mysql-admin
3. Little-tough way of resetting the 'root' user password in MySQL: Start the Apache Server and MySQL instances from the XAMPP control panel
4. Connecting to the MySQL system database as a root user
5. Assuming that they've managed to access your user database and list of hashes, there's no way that they can then recover the original passwords
6. From Unix: shell> mysql -u username -h hostname -p password mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR username@localhost=PASSWORD('new_password'); 2
7. I'm asking because I have to migrate the user accounts from another database with clear-text passwords

thank you for giving fast reply!

More Information:

1. If you forget that fact, you are likely to set passwords like this: shell> mysql -u root mysql mysql> INSERT INTO user (Host,User,Password)
2. What if the password to the database is compromised? Then your entire user password database will be compromised as well
3. HI, I've hit the grain while trying to import file to mysql database - I need to enable file permissions of the database user but this seems not possible
4. This is a preliminary notification about an impending change to the passwords for all database users on your (gs) Grid-Service
5. We are going to create a database called amarok which will be accessible from localhost to user amarok idetified by the password amarok
6. XAMPP: The MySQL/phpMyAdmin user pma has no password set!!! XAMPP: Do you want to set a password? [yes] yes XAMPP: Password: XAMPP: Password

If they are encrypted with md5 in most cases this is the way.It is possible to decrypt but it takes some time and it is not legal to learn your members paswords.

More Information:

1. AuthMySQLUserTable user_table_name, Name of MySQL Databse table in the database which holds the user name and passwords
2. mysql> insert into -> user (host, user, password) -> values('localhost','djg',password('mypassword'));
3. When storing passwords using AES, you should actually use a known phrase as the plaintext value, and the user's password as the key
4. 7 posts - 3 authors - Last post: Jan 14MySQL stores usernames and passwords in the user table inside the MySQL database
5. Connect to the local database server as user root # You will be prompted for a password
6. If all goes well you have set up a user and database with MySQL
