just wondering if this is only happening to me. i have set up mysql to require a password for "root" upon login. now, whenever i start mysql using /etc/rc.d/init.d/mysqld start, i get the message that starting mysql timed-out and failed, even though it actually started. checking that script, i've determined that it hangs when it tries to ping the mysql server (mysqladmin ping), since ping-ing now requires a password. my temporary solution was to comment the ping part out (just so i can get an OK for mysql's startup. was this how it always was? i've used rh9 with mysql before, with the exact same setup (root requires psasword no matter where logging in from), and this never occurred. is this only happening to me? any solution on how to allow "mysqladmin ping" without requiring a password?

The same for me. :)
On rh9's mysqld init script, there's nothing about mysqlping. I just commented it out, too.
