What is the usage of "i-am-a-dummy" flag in mysql?..

Answer / Vimal Bharti

The `i-am-a-dummy` flag in MySQL is a deprecated option that was used to prevent the server from checking whether the connection client supports the authentication plugins. It has been replaced by the `--skip-name-resolve` or `--skip-host-cache` options for modern versions of MySQL.
