Sorry to come late into the thread but are you a client on a lan with a server or is it a standalone box? If the system administrator hasn't granted you permission to access databases then you'll not be able to connect. If you are the administrator I think at this stage that you should delete /var/lib/mysql then uninstall mysql server using yast, reinstall mysql server and follow the instructions which appear on screen when you type rcmysql start. Do _exactly_ what it tells you to do after that, cryptic as it is. Cheers, Steve.
