Don't think this is the issue. If it were, I wouldn't be able to use MySQLCC on my own local database which is also 4.1.0 alpha, would I?MySQL 4.1 provides new password hashing mechanism. This error appears if you connect with pre-4.1 client to the server 4.1. ook at: http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Password_hashing.html
In the above section of the manual you can find description of possible scenarios for 4.1 server.
The only way that I can get the command line on my laptop to connect to my linux box is to include the protocol option (--protocol=TCP), even though the laptop is purely a 4.1.0 install. MySQLCC, apparently, does not accept the protocol command line parameter and it gives me the same error message I get when I don't use the protocol parameter on the command line. Of course, MySQLCC connects just fine to my other MySQL database which also happens to be a 4.0.15 setup on a Win2K desktop. So, I guess it's one of those things where it's both fish and fowl.
