Unfortunately neither driver works for Mysql 4.1.7 .

I get a " Client does not support authentication protocol requested by
server; consider upgrading MySQL client (Mysql::Error)"  message when
trying to connect as root to localhost with a password (mysql variable
old_passwords is turned on as well).

Any clues?
Thanks
