Please show us the command you entered to start the mysql program.

The account name (@(protected)) has no username before the '@ ' character,
which indicates that you have connected as the anonymous user. This
user has no privileges to create the mytest database.

Please show what these commands were. No one can help you diagnose
the problem without information to go on.

Well ... I 'm afraid we cannot tell you that, either, because although
you 've indicated that you installed MySQL 4.0.18 for Mac, you haven 't
told us how you installed it. Did you use the PKG distribution? Did you
install from source?
