Yuri,

if you want to connection to your community server you cannot use a localhost connection, since it is on a remote machine. If you don't have any valid credentials for the remote server you can only ask your system admin to give you one or if there is nobody who could do that and you have direct access to that box you can reset the root password as described here: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/resetting-permissions.html and then log in as root. After that you can give root a new password and create any new user you want.
