MySQL 4.1.1 changed the way how password hashes were computed. Clients
designed with older versions of MySQL could be made to work with
post-4.1 servers by using another password function when setting the
password (OLD_PASSWORD() instead of PASSWORD()). In this case you need
to do the opposite but I am not sure if it is supported. Your best bet
could be to upgrade MySQL or disable password checks altogether (if
that is a viable option based on how exposed your MySQL is).
