[Mono-devel-list] Looking for MySQL help

[Reggie Burnett]

ByteFX currently doesn't support MySQL 4.1.  You may need to use some form o
configuration option for MySQL to instruct it to use the older client/server
protocol.  

Support for 4.1 is planned but since MySQL 4.1 is still alpha, a priority is
being placed on getting ByteFX 1.0 out the door.

Hope this helps,
Reggie
