That's a very common one. You're on windows, right?
Try putting in "consider upgrading MySQL client" into google. The first one
I found was this one:

.html

Although the guy first claims it's not the OLD_PASSWORD problem, believe me,
it is.

Alternatively look up the error code, although I don't know if that would've
helped in this case.

Subject: [PHP-DB] MySQL Connect using Dreamweaver


Dear All,

I have installed MySQL 5 with PHP 4.3.3.

When trying to connect to a database form the 'Database' tab in Dreamweaver,
I now get the following error when trying to select a DB:

'1251 Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server;
consider upgrading MySQL client'

Regards,

Will
