I am running postgres on a red hat linux server. postgresql-python-8.1.23-1.el5_6.1 postgresql-test-8.1.23-1.el5_6.1 postgresql-libs-8.1.23-1.el5_6.1 postgresql-docs-8.1.23-1.el5_6.1 postgresql-contrib-8.1.23-1.el5_6.1 postgresql-8.1.23-1.el5_6.1 postgresql-pl-8.1.23-1.el5_6.1 postgresql-odbc-08.01.0200-3.1 postgresql-jdbc-8.1.407-1jpp.4 postgresql-server-8.1.23-1.el5_6.1 postgresql-tcl-8.1.23-1.el5_6.1 User on windows computers would like to odbc to the postgres databases. I downloaded the windows postgres odbc drivers from the following site and installed version “psqlodbc-08_01_0200” on the windows computer. http://ftp9.us.postgresql.org/pub/mirrors/postgresql/odbc/versions/msi/ When I configure a “File Data Source” connection in access, I cannot connect to the postgresql database. I get the message, “A connection could not be made using the file data source parameters entered. Save non-verified file DSN?” The parameters entered are: Database: database_name Server: I entered the IP address of the server User Name: I entered postgres Password: SSL Mode: prefer Port: 5432 (which is the port used by postgres) Do I need to configure the /etc/odbc.ini file? It is currently just a blank file. Thanks for any help. Marc
