Title: Homestead MySQL Username correction (root)

Username `homestead` works fine for me when connecting remotely, however internally (ie. from Laravel/MySQL via SSH) it does not connect. Using the username `root` instead (with password `secret`), works.

**I'm not familiar with Postgres, so haven't checked with that, though.**
