ok, thanks Daniel..  I remember from last time I didn't pass anything to 
client, opened client, typed password, got in...  (as far as reading 
tables, I HAVE searched google for "mysql copy databases", etc..   still 
can't find out how to solve that problem..  can't understand why can't 
read tables, have exact same version as before, why can't MySQL read my 
tables now..)  ok, thanks anyway...  since have spent three days already 
trying to solve this problem what's one day more....??  ;)
