Greetings
After installing the new release of MySQL ( i.e. MySQL 4.1), I know get the following error from phpMyAdmin when using any of the auth types:
Error
#1251 - Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client.
I get this whether I am using cconfig, http or cookie based authentication. Any ideas why this is happening? Is there a config setting in MySQL I should set to support the protocol?

i struggled w/ this for a while, before learning that even though i had mysql 4.1 installed, php4 was being compiled w/ it's own built-in mysql libraries, which are pre-4.1, hence the error. compiling php5 will solve the problem, as it's included mysql libraries are apparently newer, or compiling php4, and pointing configure to your mysql libraries (--with-mysql=/path/to/mysql) will also work.
