In my experience, the opposite is the case, but it's irrelevant with the present difficulty, which has nothing to do with Windows vs Linux---the command line interface for mysqladmin is the same in both systems. The problem here isn't with Linux, it's with reading.

-p, --password[=name] means you can write ...

-pYOUR_PSWD or --password=YOUR_PSWD

-u, --user=name means you can write ...

-uUSER_NAME or --user=USER_NAME

where USER_NAME and YOUR_PSWD are your MySQL username & password respectively.
