MySQL auth password mismatch help

[awingnut]

I've set up a directory requiring authentication. When I use 'mysql' and select with pwd=password('whatever'), it finds the correct row. When I use that same password from my browser authentication, it fails and I get a password mismatch error in the error_log file.

Can someone suggest where I might look to shoot this bug? TIA.

Never mind. Apparently something has changed in Apache 2. IIRC, the passwords used the 'password()' function in Apache 1. Out of desperation I tried 'encrypt()' and that works.
