Mysql maintains the information in question in a table called 'user'. Or
more properly called mysql.user . You can manipulate it through the
mysqladmin interface or through mysql itself.
These steps will work:
----------------------------------------------------
# mysql -u root -p mysql
Enter password: **aa**
mysql> REPLACE INTO user ( host, user, password )
VALUES (
'localhost',
'hordemgr',
password('hordemgr')
);
mysql> commit;
mysql> exit
# mysqladmin -p reload
Enter password: **aa**
----------------------------------------------------
-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-
The REPLACE command was taken from the
horde/scripts/database/mysql_create.sql file in the horde distribution.
-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-
