Thanks, that 'VIA' syntax worked to get past the syntax error, but the script still errors at the very beginning:

Enter current password for root (enter for none):
/usr/mariadb/10.6/bin/mariadb-secure-installation[249]: .my.cnf.4015: cannot create [Permission denied] /usr/mariadb/10.6/bin/mariadb-secure-installation[250]: .my.cnf.4015: cannot create [Permission denied] /usr/mariadb/10.6/bin/mariadb-secure-installation[251]: .my.cnf.4015: cannot create [Permission denied] /usr/mariadb/10.6/bin/mariadb-secure-installation[253]: .my.cnf.4015: cannot create [Permission denied] /usr/mariadb/10.6/bin/mariadb-secure-installation[218]: .mysql.4015: cannot create [Permission denied] /usr/mariadb/10.6/bin/mariadb-secure-installation[220]: .mysql.4015: cannot open [No such file or directory]
Enter current password for root (enter for none):

Not sure how to proceed here. :-(

As an aside, I've found "IDENTIFIED VIA unix_socket" to be the way to go for
