Slow ODBC Connection
Hello, We have users who have just starting connecting to our informix 9.40FC4 database using informix ODBC drivers and they are experiencing 20 to 30-second connect times. When they try to connect, the online.log shows a -952 message: Password validation for user (xxx) failed. Check for password aging/account lock-out. But the user then does end up connecting successfully to the database. Any thoughts on where I might look for causes? It seems that it must be trying to validate the password in the wrong place first, and then eventually does validate it. Thanks much for any help.

I've been seeing this with Windows clients using the 2.81TC2 ODBC driver, when a system data source is used and username and password entered in the data source properties are different than the user logged into Windows. I assume that the ODBC driver tries the logged on user first. When that fails, it uses the user from the data source. Another problem with the ODBC driver is that when the user specified in the data source changes his password, the driver always uses the old password, and when that fails, the data source properties dialogue comes up and asks for the new password. Somehow I cannot get the driver to store the new password. I am rather dissatisfied with the way IBM supports the ODBC drivers. 2.81TC2 is the latest version that works with Access 2003, all later versions produce errors. This has been discussed in this NG before, but to no avail. Regards, Richard
