Hi, This mailing list is for the discussion of developing Django itself. Questions related to using Django are meant for the django-users mailing list.
I'm not familiar enough with the MySQLdb python package, but if it supports that as a connection option, you'd need to provide it under the DATABASES "OPTIONS" dict in your settings. If it doesn't accept a connection param that matches --skip-secure-auth, then you'll need to look in to something to proxy the connection or perhaps extending the mysql database backend. If you find yourself needing to work on a database backend, check out the Custom Database Backends talk given at DUTH last year.
