Hi mark

It's possible to connect.

Try with this source code.
Connection con = null;
try
{
Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver");
con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost/DBName?user=root");//This is for Linux for windows don't specify user=root.
}
catch (SQLException e)
{
System.out.println("error "+e);
}
