Connecting to a remote mysql Database
I have everything set up but when i attempt to connect i get an error that says I am using a pre 4.1 password and that a 4.1 password is required... What does this mean?
If your still having problems,

MySQL changed their password algorithm, and it means that you need to change your password hash to a 4.1 styled password

Code:
mysql> SET PASSWORD FOR
    -> 'some_user'@'some_host' = OLD_PASSWORD('newpwd');
Read the doc HERE


Good luck and thanks.
