[Koha] 2.2.1 on Libranet

Hi all,

I'm trying to get 2.2.1 installed on Libranet 2.8.1 (a Debian-based 
distro) and am running into trouble with the installation script.  I 
followed Joshua's instructions for installing on Debian Woody 
(excellent, BTW!) and everything seems to go smoothly until it tries to 
create the database.  I was wondering if anyone else had run into this.  
Here's the error output from the database creation stage:

Creating the MySQL database for Koha...
0/usr/bin/mysqladmin:  connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'access denied for user: kohaadmin at localhost (Using password: 
YES)'

However, I can log in to the mysql monitor with the kohaadmin user.  I 
also notice that when the script is creating the user 
'kohaadmin' (after prompting for the password) it prints out this 
message, but still proceeds to the next step.  I don't know whether 
it's significant or not, so I'll include it:

Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at Install.pm 
line 1364, <STDIN> line 9.

Anyhow, it seems that the database isn't getting created as a result.  
Can anyone tell me what I can do to fix it?  Below is some of the 
version information for related software on this system:

mysql:  ver 12.22 Distrib 4.0.24
perl 5.8.4
apache 1.3.33
kernel 2.4.21

Thanks!
Cindy
