unraid and mysql

[Vauxmad]

Im trying to setup mysql on my unraid server so i can have a central database for my xbmc machines.

I have installed mysql but i am unable log in and keep getting error 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@localhost'

I have tried reinstalling mysql a number of times and its still doing it! Can anyone help please?
