There's information for reverting to the previous authentication method at https://mariadb.com/kb/en/authentication-from-mariadb-104/. What I can't seem to readily locate is information on going the other way i.e. changing from the previous authentication method to using the unix_socket authentication method. For instance, when upgrading from MariaDB 10.3, the mysql_native_password method is still in effect. I would like to switch this off. This command seems to work:
, However, based on the default accounts described above in this topic, are there accounts to clean up (from 10.3) or add (in 10.4 e.g mysql@localhost)?
