I now have MySQL 4.0.2 and MySQL 4.1.3 beta both installed and running on one 
machine. I want to be able to use the Perl DBI / DBD to connect to both 
servers. I understand that there have been some changes between the MySQL 
4.0.X and 4.1.X series that may require differently compiled DBD's.

So my question is, do i need to have 2 separate DBD versions, or will the 
newer one work for both MySQL servers. The old DBD does not work for the new 
server. This is demonstrated by the error message:

DBI->connect(...) failed: Client does not support authentication protocol 
requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client at connect_test.pl line 
19

All the connect_test.pl tries to do is create a db connection to each server 
separately. 

Any insight would be greatly appreciated
thanks much
