[horde] MySQL Auth problem...

[Andrew Coutermarsh]

Anyone?  Bueller?  Bueller?

I think I'm going to try uninstalling the RPM installations and try
doing it over from the tarballs... As far as I can tell, this thing is
set up perfectly, and it's just not doing anything.  Maybe if I start
from scratch, I can figure out what's going wrong.
