OS: Mandrake 7.0
MySQL Build: 3.22.32
Also Running:
    php 4.0.3
    apache 1.3.x
    sendmail x.x

Had to change hostname in mysql, now mysqld & safe_mysqld starts and then
dies instataneously.  When I start mysqld, i get msg "Found old style
password for user '  ' restarting using old protocol" but still isn't
accessible via php page and/or GUI mysql client.
when I use safe_mysqld the daemon starts then dies without error message.
Any ideas???

TIA
