About JDBC connection retries 2003-12-04 - By Gujral, Harpal S.

Hello,
We are facing a situation with respect to our WebSphere App using JDBC to
connect to an Oracle Database instance.
The Driver installation / DB URL string is not an issue, because when valid
username/password is provided the user is successfully authenticated and
logged in.
Only when the password provided is wrong, the app tries to connect to the DB
for user authentication and it locks the user out.
This happens because there is a company wide policy not to allow more than 6
re-tries with a wrong password. But here we are talking about locking the
user out in the first attempt itself. On looking into the database listener
files, it was seen that 10 retry attempts were made to the database (which
of course the code has not been written to do)!
Any help in this regard would be appreciated.
Thanks
