Isn't that only an issue for < 4.1 clients and >= 4.1 servers and not for the 'other way around'? I was actually asking because I have a 4.1 server and I couldn't use PHP to connect, because it doesn't support new passwords.
It works both ways. You can make your 4.1 client treat passwords as <=4.0, and your 4.1 server accept older passwords. If you want the 4.1
Where in the client lib can you change that? I thought >= 4.1 clients would automatically use < 4.1 passwords if connecting to a < 4.1 server.
client used in PHP, you'll have to compile it from source and use PHP5. I don't think php4 supports 4.1 (mysql vs mysqli).
