I reset my root mysql password with the following instructions:



(Works for Ubuntu as well)
http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/442



But now I can't turn off mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables.



When I run fg I have:



sudo /usr/bin/mysqld_safe --skip-grant-tables


How can I kill this and start MySQL securely?
