MySQL Login Problems on 4.1

2003-12-12 Thread Victor Medina
Hi guys!

I am facing some problems trying to login user to the data base server
using --any-- client(except the mysql cli) to the server. Users using no
password does not seems to have any problems. 

It happens that when a client tries to log into the db server using
passwords the server doesn't seems to authorize. Even the most recent
MyCC client fails to autorize users using passwords. Do I need to
compile the clients against the new server's library? The MyCC client
was linked againts the 4.0.16 server. was there any change in the
auth-protocol?



Best Regards

Indeed there was.  This is mentioned in the upgrading to 4.1
section in the manual.  Some links you may want to check out:

4.1 changed the authentication code.   You can tell mysqld to use
the old authentication by starting it with the --old-passwords
option (or add old-passwords to the [mysqld] group in my.cnf).
