Mysql connect error

Question

Hi
I'm using CS4 DW with all the updates. I can log onto my local mysql database but when I setup for the one on my remote webserver
I get the following error
MySql Error 2000
mysqlind cannot connect to MYSQL4.1 using old authentication
This seems to be a standard error, is there a fix or am I missing something?
thanks
Ian
