I am trying to achieve mysql replication between server1 and server2 with help from http://www.howtoforge.com/mysql_database_replication

However, I have problem connecting server1 and server2 to perform the replication. The error that I receive during the first time replication on server2 is as below:-

mysql> LOAD DATA FROM MASTER;
ERROR 1218 (08S01): Error connecting to master: Access denied for user ’slave_user’@’server2′ (using password: YES

However, I am able to connect from server2 to server 1 with:-
mysql -h server1 -u slave_user -p
