So, this doesn't appear to be an anonymous connection anyway (it's not anonymous if you specify a username), so I don't know what the problem is that you're describing. > - is the name conflict of [MySQL] in odbcinst.ini and > [MySQL-test] a problem.

(The preferred connection method is to use a socket instead.) Why do you believe this has anything to do with anonymous connections, when you're specifying a username in the odbc.ini?
