Why would I use Linux when I can use FreeBSD;-)

localhost portion of /etc/hosts is correct, e.g.:

#::1            localhost.teamcool.net  localhost
127.0.0.1       localhost.teamcool.net  localhost


followed by line containing actual IP address, FQDN, and Aliases. =20
However, just for fun I move /etc/hosts out of the way, and it matters=20
naught.=20

PHP, Perl, Python, etc. all work fine using just "localhost" with the=20
hostfile above.  All Tomcat/Jboss apps I've used requiring=20
mysql-connector do not.

Can easily work around by using ejb...@lo... in mysql=20
grant tables instead of simply "localhost", but was wondering if there=20
was some java/jboss/tomcat/myql-connector knob I was missing somewhere.

I've subsequently discussed this with another java dev head.  Reportedly=20
this is mysql-connector related, as I am informed Oracle connector does=20
not behave this way.  So from what I gather talking to him, it sounds=20
like mysql-connector glitch.  It's been this way for long as I can=20
remember though, so I figure there must be some reason for it....
