Yes, I did try. The issue was the security level setting on the new DB 
server, and not the password stuff. I've upgraded apache, mysql, and php 
in the last few weeks, and 3-4 issues became painfully apparent when going 
from php4 to php5, so I guess I was operating under similar assumptions 
and frustrations. 

My apologies to all. I'll try to keep from functioning in iamadummy mode.

Have you tried this yet?  While 4.0 client can't connect to a v.5
server unless the passwords have explicitly been stored as
old_password, I have never run into an issue connecting a 5.x client
to a 4.0 server.
