Thanks Tom. When I did this I got an ODBC error back that said connection
failed due to port shutdown due to too many failed connection attempts (or
something to that effect, I'm kicking myself since I didn't write it down)
and it even said to run mysqladmin -p flush-hosts to flush the connections.
When I did this everything started to work. The datasource verified and the
sample query runs fine.

Now my question is this, does this occur often? Have others seen this error
reported and is it something that needs to be constantly monitored?

Thanks again everyone for all your help during this install process the last
couple of weeks.

This is not the case.

Write a template which has a simple CFQUERY tag using the mySQL data
source.  You will get a better error diagnostic that should lead you
toward a solution.

Example template:

<cfquery Name="q" DataSource="d1844_net">
select * from table
</cfquery>
