This might cause the following error:
mysqlnd cannot connect to MySQL 4.1+ using old authentication

Solution:
type in mysql

SET PASSWORD FOR 'some_user'@'some_host' = OLD_PASSWORD('newpwd');

Findings:
Because mysqlnd has a bigger password hash it will not be compatible anymore with the password written beforehand.
