You may be confusing something like FTP - where anonymous users log in with 'anonymous' as the username and some random string (usually, an email address) - with MySQL, where anonymous users log in with 'guest' (usually) as the username and no password. It's a different scenario overall.
Of course, you could follow the advice you got from roboticus if you actually want to have a user named 'anonymous' with a password of 'yes' - but that would create an expectation failure. The point of default usernames and passwords is that most people know what they are in a given situation and thus don't have to ask anyone. No one is going to be able to guess your username and password - which means that "anonymous/yes" is no different from "fizzlegig/Af5&%#g!dRqqq" (i.e., a non-anonymous username/password pair.)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
