OK. The below text is from the MySQL website.
"When you connect to a MySQL server, you should use a password. The password
is not transmitted in clear text over the connection. Password handling
during the client connection sequence was upgraded in MySQL 4.1.1 to be very
secure"
Has anyone actually tested this by "sniffing" their packets during use?
Also, does anybody know if this applies when using VB to connect using the
connection string?
This may be totally obvious but I was just looking for a 2nd opinion. I
have not yet "sniffed" my own packets yet as currently, my DB server is
deader than dead.
