mysql vulnerability factor

Hi all,

I find that the new Fedora 10 has gone backwards in regard to security.
I have read the documentation on mysql and mysql-server and it is all confusing.
Furthermore, when you try to secure it it doesn't work I have tried numerous times
and I can't put in a password no matter what I do.

Why go backwards in regards to security. I went to grc.com and tested my penguin
and it was not stealthed at all what is up with that. Even with layered security it still
wasn't secure or even partly with mysql. This is ridiculous!

If someone can help me I would sure appreciate it. I see no reason to use mysql.
It only creates more vulnerabilities for crackers.
