After installing MariaDB and executing the 'mariadb-secure-installation' command, you configured essential security settings. You successfully changed the root password, disabled remote root access, and removed unnecessary users and databases. After granting all privileges to the root user for localhost and flushing privileges, you restarted the MariaDB service. However, a warning indicated a possible misconfiguration when the server denied access for user 'root'@'localhost', suggesting another check is needed to rectify password authentication issues.
MariaDB has been configured for secure access, with anonymous users removed, root remote login disabled, and the default test database eliminated.
It is crucial to ensure that the privileges are flushed properly and to restart the MariaDB service to apply the changes.
