Let me revise the problem description: Both mySQL Front *AND* JDBC can connect if I do not specify a password when logging in...EVEN IF A PASSWORD IS SPECIFIED IN THE ACCOUNT. Yet, if I specify the password while logging in (a scenario that SHOULD work), I am declined.
Obviously I am a mySQL newbie. Is there some place in mySQL that I must specify that it will use the passwords specified, when authenticating users? Thanks.

I can connect correctly using MySQL Front ... but JDBC is giving me this error. javax.servlet.ServletException: Invalid authorization specification: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES) Thanks.
