phpMyAdmin no habla MySQL 4.1.x password hash
Installed phpMyAdmin 2.6.1-rc1 in order to correct a fairly recent vulnerability and MySQL 4.1.6 for a much less recent one, and found that the two didn't want to talk to each other. phpMyAdmin kept spitting out error #1251 “Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client”. Turns out the problem was not so much needing to upgrade MySQL (esp. since it was the latest stable release version) as that the password hash used in 4.1.x is different from that used in 4.0.x and phpMyAdmin uses the old hash. Changing the user's password with SET PASSWORD FOR 'phpMyAdminUser'@localhost TO OLD_PASSWORD('password') did the trick.
