PHP 4.4.2 and MySQL 4.1.18

    Once installed these two don't seem to like each other. When attempting to use phpMyAdmin I get this:

    #1251 - Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client

    I've poked around the web looking for solutions/workarounds for this but but so far have come up with nothing useful. I realize I'm missing something here, any ideas what I need to do to get these two to get along and play nice?

    Your authentication method is probably wrong, 4.1 uses a different method from 4.0. See below for how to fix it

    Wow! I had actually found that solution somewhere else and tried it but it didn't work. I went ahead and tried it again and it did. I guess maybe I did something wrong last time. In any case, thanks. That got it done.
