[ILUG] Openlink ODBC drivers

Fri Oct 19 13:27:11 IST 2001

Not too familiar with Openlink, but aren't they a commercial product??

I've managed to get unixODBC and iODBC (both free ODBC Data Managers) to connect to both a MySQL and a PostrgreSQL server. What DBMS are you trying to connect to?

You may need to setup the privileges on the server to allow your host to connect. I had to run SQL commands on both servers to allow a remote host to connect. In the end I granted permissions to a user from all hosts. 

for MySQL it was
  grant all on table.* to user@"%" identified by "password"
can't remember what I did for PostgreSQl..
