I've used MySql on several servers now, but this new server I'm trying to work on just had MySql installed however when I try and set up the root account this way:

> mysqladmin -uroot password passwordhere

It gives me the error that connection to localhost failed and then says access denied for root@localhost using password: NO

So what's the deal why can't I set up a root account does anyone know?
