Here's what I did to clear up this issue....

mysql> UPDATE mysql.user SET Password = OLD_PASSWORD('newpwd')
-> WHERE Host = 'some_host' AND User = 'some_user';
mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;


and you can find out how to do it here....

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/old-client.html

Worked like a charm and I didn't have to reset the password. I still have the same password I had to begin with.

Good luck to all those who are experiencing the same issues.
