I know how to grant privileges but the problem is with the password type of mysql 4.1.0

After granting privileges using GRANT (in 4.1.0), I can only login using the mysql 
client. But I can't use the same username and password for logging in. Nor MyODBC will 
succeed.
But c:\mysql\bin\mysql.exe will login without any problem.

I think it's a compatibility issue.


Thanks
Emery

  To create a new user use the "Grant" command from the "mysql" command prompt:
  Mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO user1@'%'
      ->     IDENTIFIED BY 'some_pass' WITH GRANT OPTIONGRANT ALL PRIVILEGES 

  this will allow the "user1" with the "some_pass" to access the database

    Hi groups,

    does anyone know of a way to use myODBC and connect to MySQL 4.1 using its new 
passwords?

    When I create a password using PASSWORD( ), I can only login using the MySQL 
client (the one that comes with MySQL).
    But if I create the password using OLD_PASSWORD( ), I can login from both my 
applications and the MySQL client!!! Curious!!

    The server says: 
    ERROR 1249: Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server. 
Consider upgrading MySQL client.

    I received this error when I used
    - MySQL Front 2.5
    - MySQL Control Center 0.9.2
    - My Application developped in VB using MyODBC 3.51 to connect

    I have not yet tried PHP.
    I searched the archives but found only one people who faced the same problem but I 
didn't see any message saying that he got a solution.

    Or simply, is it possible to tell MySQL daemon to use OLD_PASSWORD when encrypting 
passwords?



    Any advice? 
    Thanks,
