What type of OS do you use? Centos Desktop?
Anyway, you gotta set up a mysql user into the server giving it host permision % which means allow from anywhere.
For removing the root password, you tried the command: passwd -d root
Basically it will remove the password
I am pretty new in the stuff, I am using Centos how do you set up user, ive had a vmare on centos before, created users via navicat it was everything fine, well tried to install again and now theres no chances to connect to db from desktop. i can connect from centos its fine but it doesnt allow me to do it from desktop or from any tools
