Example Output:

And root password is: fQGM*ec61-s#

you can Keep this password if you like :

6. MySQL Secure Installation

  • Change root password
  • Remove anonymous users
  • Disallow root login remotely
  • Remove test database and access to it
  • Reload privilege tables

Start MySQL Secure Installation with following command

/usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation

 

[root@osrdarFedora ~]# mysql_secure_installation

Securing the MySQL server deployment.

Enter password for user root:   #( please   insert the password found in logs  Above) 

The existing password for the user account root has expired. Please set a new password.


Re-enter new password:
The 'validate_password' component is installed on the server.
The subsequent steps will run with the existing configuration
of the component.
Using existing password for root.

Estimated strength of the password: 100
Change the password for root ? ((Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : Y

New password:

Re-enter new password:

Estimated strength of the password: 100
Do you wish to continue with the password provided?(Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y
By default, a MySQL installation has an anonymous user,
allowing anyone to log into MySQL without having to have
a user account created for them. This is intended only for
testing, and to make the installation go a bit smoother.
You should remove them before moving into a production
environment.

Remove anonymous users? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y
Success.


Normally, root should only be allowed to connect from
'localhost'. This ensures that someone cannot guess at
the root password from the network.

Disallow root login remotely? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y
Success.

By default, MySQL comes with a database named 'test' that
anyone can access. This is also intended only for testing,
and should be removed before moving into a production
environment.


Remove test database and access to it? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y
- Dropping test database...
Success.

- Removing privileges on test database...
Success.

Reloading the privilege tables will ensure that all changes
made so far will take effect immediately.

Reload privilege tables now? (Press y|Y for Yes, any other key for No) : y
Success.

All done!
[root@osrdarFedora ~]#

 

Note: If you don’t want some reason, do a “MySQL Secure Installation” then at least it’s very important to change the root user’s password

mysqladmin -u root password [your_password_here]

## Example ##
mysqladmin -u root password myownsecrectpass

7. Connect to MySQL database (localhost) with password

mysql -u root -p

## OR ##
mysql -h localhost -u root -p

8. Create Database, Create MySQL User and Enable Remote Connections to MySQL Database

This example uses following parameters:

  • DB_NAME = osradar
  • USER_NAME = osradar_user
  • PASSWORD = 1234567@@@Osradar
  • PERMISSIONS = ALL
## CREATE DATABASE ##
mysql> CREATE DATABASE osradar;

## CREATE USER ##
mysql> CREATE USER 'osradar_user'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY '123456@@@Osradar'
-> ;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.05 sec)
# Grant Access 
mysql> GRANT ALL ON osradar.* TO 'osradar_user'@'localhost'; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.04 sec)
mysql> flush Privileges;
Please note : to allow connection from remote IP . please change Localhost with Remore IP

Verify The USER mysql access:

[root@osrdarFedora ~]# mysql -u osradar_user -p
Enter password:
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 23
