This isn't a DBI issue, the problem is that the passwords in your
privilage tables (IE from 3.x or 4.0) are not compatible with MySQL
4.1's authentication protocol.
You're only two options are:
1) just use old_passwords (IE it has to be in ~/.my.cnf for CLI use =
MySQL issue not Perl)
2) update your privileges to 4.1 auth schema
3) go back to 4.0 or whatever
You may find other options from the mysql folks :)
