I recently made a script that uses raw TCP sockets to connect to a mysql server and communicate directly (bypassing any ODBC or DLLs). I had success at first with both linux and win32 based servers, but recently I am being unable to connect due to an incorrect password being sent from my script. It continues to work for linux based servers however. I've compared the 8 character scrambled password hash from my script and another client I have. They are completely different on this windows based server (running 3.23.49-nt), so I'm wondering if the server language byte has anything to do with the password returned or if i'm just missing something in the handshake. (I noticed that the nt server doesn't return the password scramble in the same place it is returned on a linux server).
Any help would be much appreciated.
