mysql root password

[Ingo Reimann <reimann@convert.uni-muenster.de>]

Hi

Sometime, when i installed mysql ( don't know why exatcly ) the configure
script advised me to set a root password. I yelled for the ghosts ( is it
correct? ) and set one with
myswladm password XXX
ok, so far so good.

Every time when some apt script touches the database, it tries it without a
password and exits.

How can i remove this nasty password or 
How can i tell the scripts to use my password

Any help would be nice

Ingo
