First, How do I login to a Linux console?. Then type this sequence:

   mysql pluto_main -u root
   select * FROM Users;

You will see a list of the users in the database. Then type in this:

   update Users set Password=md5("mypassword") where UserName="myusername";
   quit;

Where mypassword is the new password and myusername is the username.

To exit type in:

exit;
