There might be a problem after all.

I installed the mysql-server-5.0.22 package.  When I tried to set the
root passwords, the command:

/usr/local/bin/mysqladmin -u root password <password>


worked fine, but when I tried to run:

/usr/local/bin/mysqladmin -u root -h homebox.localnet.dot password <password>


I got the message:

/usr/local/bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'homebox.localnet.dot' failed
error: 'Host 'homebox.localnet.dot' is not allowed to connect to this MySQL server'



I'm guessing that it's an error with MySQL and not DNS.  I don't know anything about databases though.
