MySQL Error #1405 or #2001 --- NEED HELP PLSSS

I followed all the intructions to make my own EQEmu server. I then ran the wold.exe file and it reported my MySQl server rejected the username and password. First off the only place I remember entering this info in was the db.ini file in my c:\eqemu folder and I know I gave the correct names with no extra spaces at the end. Could it be a port problem or something else I am totally missing or maybe I need to enter the username and password in an additional location? Please help I have the feeling I am close...
