Issue description:

says at "Procedure 9.1. Instructions" that "Your manager assigned you to solve the issue and set redhat as the password for the root user on the database."

Steps 5.1 and 5.2 expect that "mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables --skip-networking &" is used, however 'mysqladmin password redhat' just works (and does afterwards what it is supposed to do). Is there maybe a step missing inside the lab scripts to actually change the password of the MySQL/MariaDB root user before the guided excercise? Using "mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables --skip-networking &" doesn't make much sense if standard commands such as "mysqladmin" (or even mysql(1)) just works without any authentication.

Feels like a bug, either in the lab script - or in the course content/material.
