* Linux Postgres and Solaris Tango

Does / Has anyone run a Linux Postgres server in conjunction with Tango that
runs on a Solaris machine? Under this scenario, I need a Solaris ODBC driver
that can redirect queries to the remote Linux machine. I have yet to come
across such a driver, although my research is just in its beginning phase.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Don't know what Tango is, but the ODBC driver which ships with
Postgres is reputed to compile and run on Solaris. You need to use it
in conjunction with a main driver such as iODBC, at least on Linux.
I do have access to Solaris machines, but afaik I don't have any apps
which would let me test the driver from there.

Does your database reside locally, or is it on a remote machine? By this, I
am trying to ensure that the Solaris ODBC driver will allow me to forward
queries to a secondary box that contains the actual Postgres database...
Also, does the act of compiling the ODBC driver require the full
installation of Postgres on the Solaris platform?

It does work..I use it with ColdFusion on Solaris 2.6 and 7..I have
also used
it with unixodbc and StarOffice...just a confirmation that it does
work on
Solaris Sparc/x86.

I have it it locally, but it should work connecting to another machine..that is
where you would need to ensure that it already works via psql would be my guess.

I did it from source after many tries and help from this list and Tom who gave
me the final pieces to help figure out what Solaris needed specifically to
compile and work...I have since tried from the now availble sources and it now
works "out of the box".
