"Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client".

Check the following:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Old_client.html

"Tell the server to use the older password hashing algorithm:
Start mysqld with the --old-passwords option."


According to Php.net:
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=23252

"MySQL 4.1 won't be supported in PHP 4.3.
PHP5 snapshots have an extension called mysqli which is
for MySQL 4.1 functions (mysqli_*)."


So the new protocol will, according to PHP, not be supported in PHP 4.3.x.

Solution:
Upgrade PHP to version 5 or start your mysql-server with the argument --old-passwords
