[RESOLVED] Connecting Woes

[lives4him06]

using the code:

	$user="uname";
	$host="localhost";
	$password="passwd";
	$database = "operationass";
	$connection = mysql_connect($host, $user, $password)
				  or die (mysql_error());
	$db = mysql_select_db($database, $connection)
		  or die ("Couldnt select database");
 

I was once able to connect to my database.
I was having some troubles with mysql so I decided to reload Mysql 5.0.

Now when i load the page with this script I get the following error:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in C:\Documents and Settings\Jeffrey Klassen\My Documents\website\operationass\content.php on line 9

So i reinstalled mysql 5.0 and then mysql 4.1 both resulting in the same error.

What is going on?

I should have a current (post 4.1) client/ server combo. Just to be sure, i recreated my user name and password using

grant all on . to uname identified by 'passwd';

the same error still occures.
