remote connectin crashes MySQL

>Description:
When I try to connect to MySQL from a remote computer, MySQL =
crashes on the server. It doesn't matter whether I give it the correct =
authentication information or not. I can connect fine from the local =
server, both through the socket and port, using the mysql command line =
utility.
>How-To-Repeat:
I have tried connecting both through PHP, and from MySQL command =
line on the remote server. For PHP I passed mysql_connect the host =
name, username, and password. On the command-line I used:
/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql --host=3D --user=3D =
--password=3D
Both servers have identical software on them.

You need to update to 4.0.9. 4.0.8 will segfault every time it
receives a network connection from an IP that does not reverse
resolve.
