Subject: ruby on rails with mysqladmin

Hi all

with :
    mysqladmin -u root create dummy_development

I get :
mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)'

all i have in terms of firewall is windows and the localhost:3000
works for sure anyways, i even loaded a page on it.
And the YML file shows me im ok , i dont need a password etc :

development:
adapter: mysql
database: dummy_development
username: root
password:
host: localhost

I tried the same thing at work , no problems with it.
Any ideas what's going on please  ? thanks
