Its not finding it. May be I need to get on another box then, not sure.
arrgh, now you're making a mess.Since ODBC driver was missing, downloaded unixODBC-2.3.0.tar.gz and configured/make this. Now "which odbc_config" works
# which odbc_config
/usr/local/bin/odbc_config
# odbc_config --libs
-L/usr/local/lib -lodbc
standard 2 part warranty applies here, you get to keep both pieces if you're mixing packaged software with custom built.
You want me clean some stuff. Because I installed 'unixODBC-2.3.0'?

5.5 is a fairly old release of Red Hat Enteprise Linux Server release 5, they are up to 5.9 now. simply running `yum update` should get you the latest incremental files
now, if you're running RHEL without a subscription, you're stuck here, as you can't use yum to install anything from the Red Hat repositories, they are for subscribers only. If you want to run a free version with open repositories, you should consider running CentOS
I can do 'yum update' and its started to update 1st package. Although I exit, just want to confirm there is no unixODBC-libs package so it will not update it. Is that correct?
