5.0 is very old, obsolete, no longer supported. You need to upgrade that MySQL installation.

A basic principle of relational databases like MySQL is that user access should be via the database software: "no back doors!" So aside from maintenance by DB & network admins, such access attempts signal a failure---of understanding, of the software, or of the hardware.

What problems are your users trying to solve by trying to directly access MySQL data files?
