On 2005-02-25 mod_auth_mysql 2.9.0 was released. Fedora Core Devel contains 4 months old version 2.6.1, now after FC4 release, tree should be unfrozen it's good time for update. Newer version fix bugs like: - Fixed bug caused by new scrambled password algorithm in MySQL 4.1 - Fixed a bug in the password hashing mechanism. This only affects MySQL 4.1 and later using PASSWORD encryption
Done; thanks for the heads-up.
