Thanks, I'd already found the debian.cnf.  Somehow MySQL didn't have
the correct password.  I cut and pasted the password I found in the
debian.cnf file and told MySQL to use that.  I can now log in as the
debian user.  Is this password used on all debian machines or is it
randomly generated at installation time?

Also, if I change this password is there anything else this user does
that this might break?  I'm still learning how debian does stuff.

Thanks!
