Hmmm, that is odd. We have had no problem editing MySQL DSN's with the
Merant drivers, although where you are asked for the MySQL server's
hostname (and the MySQL server is on the same system as Cold Fusion), you
must give the full hostname, not just "localhost". If you use 'localhost'
it will work initially but if you need to restart cfserver for any reason,
then it will not be able to verify the DSN again, unless you have used the
full Internet address of teh MySQL server.
