I just got ColdFusion talking to pgsql via an ODBC driver. Nothing unusual, except I'm using the CF 4.5 beta, running on linux! The trick is to use the unixODBC client lib from www.unixODBC.org, and edit the odbc.ini file in the ColdFusion install, at ${CFHOME}/odbc/odbc.ini the CF server has a ODBC drive manager (Intersolv, I think) linked in. Cool! This is going to save me from having to install NT on our production server! Ross -- Ross J.
