[[http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=4719036]] *NOTE* [SOLVED] - for some reason the system was not automatically making the mysql user. It still does this when an app needs user-level access (like clamav). '''**SOLVED**''' I had some custom bash scripts installed and one for 'adduser' was called BEFORE the system one - so I mucked up the PATH. Fixed path order and all good now. = About = Ok, go ahead and ask - ''"What's up with the name?"''<

> I'm somewhat of a ''new-age'' thinker, ''Taoist'' in the way that I think and approach the world, ''Techno'' because, well, I'm a geek ok? Finally, ''Pagan'' - __yes, I am Pagan__ - albeit an eclectic mixture of '''Taoism''', '''Buddhism''', '''Wicca''', '''Druidism''', and even some '''Hindu'''. __I'm on my own path and and it's taken me a while to find it.__ <

> So as to why I am here, well I enjoy tinkering with Linux. I started with Mandrake at 7.1 and then tried out FreeBSD 4.2 - getting X to work back then wasn't anywhere as easy. From there I tried Debian and was hooked on it until I found Linux From Scratch (LFS). I then found myself in Gentoo Land and was '''very''' happy. I still say to this day that Gentoo is my distro of choice, but I do enjoy using Ubuntu and Debian as well.<
