 Re: Can we change the password of the informix user? --0__=09BBE4D4DFCC30518f9e8a93df938690918c09BBE4D4DF CC3051 Content-type: multipart/alternative; Boundary="1__=09BBE4D4DFCC30518f9e8a93df938690918c 09BBE4D4DFCC3051" --1__=09BBE4D4DFCC30518f9e8a93df938690918c09BBE4D4DF CC3051 Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Whenever username & password are supplied in a connection(be it through ODBC or any other connectivity tool), they have to be a valid username-password combination on the server machine. Putting in other words, if a user exists on both client & server machine, and the passwords are different, the server machine password has to be supplied during connection. Side note: A connection can also be made without specifying username & password. In this circumstance, the concept of trusted machine, trusted user or sqlhosts settings come into picture.
