Beware that most php code currently available today requires the mysql library as opposed to mysqli.
If you are running 5.x and need to connect to software like phpBB, e107, etc. then you must use an
old version of mysql prior to 4.1.x in order to use passwords.
PHP developers decided to break binary compatibility by adding the mysqli insterface instead of
fixing mysql to work with newer mysql 4.1.x releases.
