[Xitami] problem with php and mySql

[Michael Barath]

Antonio, I'm having the same problem at school. I'm using php v4.3, mysql
v4.1, and xitami v2.5. In one of my classrooms php w/ xitami runs fine,
mysql runs fine from the command line, but trying to access the database
from php produces the same error you get: 

Warning: mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol
requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client ...

In the room next door, with the same exact software setup, everything works
fine. The only difference between the two rooms is the hardware - older
equipment in the room where things don't work properly. 

If you get a clue about what's going on, I'd appreciate a heads up.

I try to connect to a mySql database with a php page, but receive a warning
message that states:
"Client does not support authentication protocol..."
What's wrong?
Thanks!

In a different machine a similar connection (IIS; mySql 4.1.6gamma-nt; php
5.1.2) is OK, but I need to work with xitami (or a different free server,
running under Win-XP Home).
