Yeah, when I sent the email I was letting personal emotion get in my
way because it was frustrating me. I realized shortly before falling
asleep that I'd been doing this on my workstation, which has been
around since god-knows-when, and has god-knows-what left on it. I
think I'll stand up a test vm or second box with just the unixODBC
bits and no other java remnants and retest with mysql. Hopefully this
time I'll manage to keep my yap shut until I've figured it all out :-P
