Exclamation Is there a way to make mysql accept a wildcard password for a user?

Hello,

I have a question regarding mysql and passwords. I have a test user and No Password set for him (its a local test box, dont worry ).

Now the problem is a php script is passing a password along with the logon, so i guess mysql is denying them because they are passing a password, even though i have no password set.

Is there a way to make mysql accept ANY password given (wildcard) or to just ignore the password given?

Thanks guys!

I have not heard of such a thing. Why don't you remove the password from the PHP script or set the password the script is using for the user in MySQL?
