mysql horde password
« on: April 29, 2005, 05:50:15 AM »
I was updating a password in mysql and forgot to add the WHERE clause and updated every user's password.  Stupid - I know.  My question is: I assume the default root password for mysql is mysql, but what should horde users password be?
Thanks,

Hi,

To start off with you don't use root to login to MySQL for MySQL databases that you have created. You create another user and password to access MySQL. Leave horde running under root user tho.

You should NOT changed the root password to MySQL, as i understand the root password is a random 76 alpha numeric string.
