Hi Whil,
Become root and change the password of mysql. Then you will be able to login as mysql using the newly assigned password. You could also become root and super-user to mysql like:
su -l mysql

Tell me what my 'mysql' password is. Don't tell me how to find it. Just give me the damn fish this time. <g>

Because I'm embarking upon a new career in identity theft, and the first person I want to be is Mr. MySQL.
Also because I don't want to start the server up as root.
