Why Freeradius and Mysql dont work?

[yao guoxian]

Thanks a lot!
 I dont know why Freeradius and MySQL suddenly works after I did the
following step.
1  insert into radgroupreply (groupname,attribute,op,values) values
('user'，'Auth-Type',':=','Local');
insert into radgroupreply (groupname,attribute,op,values) values
('user'，'Service-Type',':=','Framed-User');
insert into radgroupreply (groupname,attribute,op,values) values
('user'，'Framed-IP-Address',':=','255.255.255.254');
insert into radgroupreply (groupname,attribute,op,values) values
('user'，'Framed-IP-Netmask',':=','255.255.255.0');
insert into radcheck (username,attribute,op,value) values
('test','User-Password',':=','test') ；
insert into usergroup (username,groupname) values ('test','user');

2 change the setting of sql.conf
  server = "localhost"   => server = "202.117.X.X"
3 # cp   /home/ygx/mysql-standard-5.0.20-linux-i686/support-files/my-
medium.cnf  /etc/my.cnf
4 # /home/ygx/mysql-standard-5.0.20-linux-i686/bin/safe_mysqld  --user =
root
5 # radiusd -X
6 #radtest test teset localhost 0 testing123

It seems Freeradius and MySQL works as follow:
[root at nic219 freeradius-1.0.5]# radtest test test localhost 0 testing123
Sending Access-Request of id 211 to 127.0.0.1:1812
        User-Name = "test"
        User-Password = "test"
        NAS-IP-Address = nic219
        NAS-Port = 0
rad_recv: Access-Accept packet from host 127.0.0.1:1812, id=211, length=38
        Service-Type = Framed-User
        Framed-IP-Address = 255.255.255.254
        Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.0
And I use NTRadping on a XP machine , it returns correctly.

But i couldn't use " mysql -u root -p rootpass" to enter the command line
enviroment any longer. The output is :ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for
user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES). Seems strange,isnt? Anyway, I
might better re-install Mysql.

   Thanks again!
