Help ! Can't connect to database

[astoller]

I have this set up

c:/mysql with files connections and mysqlcc.cfg
the connections file contains
localhost, root ,123 (password)

i also have
c:/program files/myslqcc/mysqlcc.exe

Running mysqlcc i cannot connect to server.
How can I fix this?

I'm not sure how I set password to mysql
Originally at msdos level
i got in with
-u root -p

Now at msdos level i get in with
-u root mysql

However i can't connect using mysqlcc or
with apache.

And I cant change passwords at msdos level
because they are encrypted
so mysql shows up in the user table as
something like 499...34f
