In a follow-up to Anthony Boyd, if you have the relevant capability you can also start the MySQL
server with the --old-passwords option, or put the line "old_passwords" in to my.cnf/other
MySQL config file, eg:
language = /usr/share/mysql/english
max_connections = 1000
skip-external-locking
old_passwords
#
# Instead of skip-networking the default is now to listen only on
# localhost which is more compatible and is not less secure.
#bind-address = 127.0.0.1
bind-address = *.*.*.*
key_buffer = 256M
I prefer this option as it is more transparent to processes creating passwords that you do not
control, eg phpMyAdmin or - in my case - debian maintenance scripts.
