Support Database
Database connections from ASP fail with 'Client does not support authentication
protocol requested by server'.

Sun ONE ASP does not support the default authentication method used by MySQL 5. Instead it is necessary to make MySQL use the 'old-style' authentication. To do that, first log in to MySQL via SSH and then use the 'old_password' function to change the authentication style:

$ mysql -p -u username databasename
Password: [enter password]
mysql> set password = old_password('password');
mysql> quit
Bye
$
