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.
