Thanks Manuel! After installing MYSQL 5.0.67 on my Mac running OS X Leopard, I couldn't sign into the 'mysql' database unless I used the '--skip-grant &' option when starting the MySQL daemon. I found out the problem was that the USER table was empty. The mysql_install_db script wasn't running successfully during the install. However, your explanation fixed my problem. I just followed your steps.

Thanks again,
Brian
