[KLUG Members] mysql log in on ssh, first time

[Paul VandenBosch]

I am trying to log into mysql on my web host (through ssh) using the command:

mysql -u myusername -p

I get the prompt to enter the password, and enter my password, but get ERROR 
1045: Access denied for user: 'myusername@localhost' (Using password: YES)

Does this sound like a setup problem on the web host side?  

What else should I check?

Thanks!
I'm new at this!
