looks like i have a problem with mysql. all database access is ok as my
sites that use mysql are running and i can use phpMyAdmin to admin the
databases but as root using

mysql -u root -p

gets me the same responce

[root@proteus2 admin]# mysql -u root -p
Enter password:
ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: 'root@localhost' (Using password: YES=
)
[root@proteus2 admin]#
