The question is how to install Mysql *SERVER* 4.1. ---- "I see" said the blind man Check on the 'client' machine that 'my.cnf' is using old_passwords=0 a downgrade of the server from mysql-5 to mysql-4 isn't generally desired and installing it would be a trick and a half since there are so many things built against the mysql-libs already in Fedora. Are we still talking Ruby on Rails? What OS does your server run? Is it reasonable to think in terms of upgrading the server to mysql-5 if the suggestion about oldpasswords doesn't help?
