getting binaries to recognize mysql

[bushman77]

i've tried a few differnt installs of mysql and sourceing in the db on mysql 5.0.47 and setup all my config files. everytime i goto run world.exe it tells me the following:

C:\programs\eqemu\server>world
[Debug] Starting Log: logs/eqemu_debug_world_3396.log
[Debug] [WORLD__INIT] Loading server configuration..
[Debug] [WORLD__INIT] Log settings loaded from log.ini
[Debug] [WORLD__INIT] CURRENT_WORLD_VERSION:EQEMu 0.7.0
[Debug] [WORLD__INIT] Connecting to MySQL...
[Error] Starting Log: logs/eqemu_error_world_3396.log
[Error] Failed to connect to database: Error: #1251: Client does not support aut
hentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client
[Debug] [WORLD__INIT_ERR] Cannot continue without a database connection.


here is my output for mysql when i log into mysql prompt:

C:\programs\wamp\bin\mysql\mysql5.0.45\bin>mysql -u root
Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g.
Your MySQL connection id is 4
Server version: 5.0.45-community-nt MySQL Community Edition (GPL)

Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer.

i used wamp as it installs mysql 5.0.47, apache and php in 1 package
mabey this is my problem or it is the version of mysql it uses. the eqemu documentation tells me to use 5.0.37 which is no longer avalable for download.
