ColdFusion 8 Problem with DB2 JDBC driver

So.... another weird little issue with the CF8 upgrade. We authenticate our users to the mainframe like this: <cflog log="APPLICATION" text="[authByUsername] Authorization attempt for #UNAME# from #CGI.REMOTE_ADDR#"> <cfquery name="auth" datasource="DB2Logins" username="#UNAME#" password="#PWORD#">   SELECT 1 FROM SYSIBM.SYSDUMMY1 </cfquery> <cflog log="APPLICATION" text="[authByUsername] Authorization success for #UNAME#"> Note the logging before and after the query. After the upgrade to CF8, we've found that Coldfusion seems to be sending multiple authentication attemps - as many as 9 - in the case of an invalid password. This causes users to get revoked after a single authentication attempt - BAD! I'm probably going to call Adobe about this one unless someone can suggest why a single query request (above) would cause the JDBC driver to attempt to authenticate 9 times. -- Rick Root Check out CFMBB, BlogCFM, ImageCFC, ImapCFC, CFFM, and more at www.opensourcecf.com
