So how does one use the password function in MySQL 5? Most probably just the same, but your MySQL 4 password hashes are incompatible with MySQL 5 password hashes. A search on "password" in the MySQL docs returns quite some stuff, see: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/password-hashing.html http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/search.php?version=5.0&q=password&from=%2Fdoc%2Frefman%2F5.0%2Fen%2F&lang=en Martijn Tonies Database Workbench - development tool for MySQL, and more!
