[mythtv-users] myth database access

I was trying to make a backup of the database via 

	mysqldump -u mythtv -pmythtv mythconverg -c > mythtv_backup.sql

as shown in <http://mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-22.html#ss22.5>
However I got an error

	mysqldump: Got error: 1045: Access denied for user: 'mythtv at localhost' (Using password: YES) when trying to connect

And then folowed the link at the above URL to
<http://mythtv.org/docs/mythtv-HOWTO-6.html#modify_perm_mysql>
and ran one of the mysql commands at the end.

Now I can do the backup command, but mythtv can no longer access
the database.

Any hints on how to recover from the hole I dug?
