Problems with password reset but only in the PHP 4 mode. Works in PHP 5.

I have successfully installed WAMP5 1.6.1 with PHP5 and the PHP 4.3.1 add-on..
This problem only occurs in PHP 4. It works on PHP 5, but I need it to work on PHP 4.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I go into, phpMyAdmin and reset the “root password”. I then configure the “config.inc.php”, file located in the “phpMyAdmin directory”. I then change the value on Line 73 to my set password. When I launch phpMyAdmin in php4, I get the following error:

#1251 - Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I don’t get this error when switching to PHP 5 as everything works perfectly, but I need this to work in PHP 4.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yep!
I have the same problem.

When switching to PHP4 from PHP5
the MYSQL database does not recognize
the users password.

Wamp Tools and my script work great
with PHP5, but I get the following error
with PHP 4

---------------
Warning: mysql_connect(): Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client in D:\MY WEBS\access.php on line 4
error connecting to DB
---------------

any clues?

See the Faq on this site, it's an authentication method problem (changed since MySQL 5.0 and not supoirted by the mysql extension)
