How to install MySQL as a service with options

I want to install the MySql service with the --old-passwords flag

Iv tried running this and various permutations of it, but cant get it to work.

"c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 4.1\bin\mysqld-nt" --install MySQL -defaults-File="pathtofile" --o开发者_高级运维ld-passwords

From Starting MySQL as a Windows Service (3.x, 4.x):

Before MySQL 4.0.2, no command-line arguments can be given following the --install option. MySQL 4.0.2 and up offers limited support for additional arguments:

• You can specify a service name immediately following the --install option. The default service name is MySQL.
• As of MySQL 4.0.3, if a service name is given, it can be followed by a single option. By convention, this should be --defaults-file=file_name to specify the name of an option file from which the server should read options when it starts. The use of a single option other than --defaults-file is possible but discouraged. --defaults-file is more flexible because it enables you to specify multiple startup options for the server by placing them in the named option file.

For 5.x, it seems to be the same.
