unixODBC
===========

unixODBC is a complete ODBC solution for Linux/UNIX. It includes such
things as; DriverManager, GUI tools, command line tools, driver dev
framework, etc

It differs from iODBC in several ways. iODBC is a multiplatform
DriverManager while unixODBC is Linux/UNIX focused with portability only
a concern with Drivers. unixODBC is a more complete solution for
Linux/UNIX because it covers GUI tools etc...

unixODBC is 100% GPL/LGPL and is not controlled by any commercial
interest.... very much like PostgreSQL. unixODBC is in its 3rd Alpha
release and its 1st Beta is expected within days... hopefully PostgreSQL
will be supported in the 1st Beta.

Please visit ( http://www.genix.net/unixODBC ) to find out more and
please check back in a few days for the 1st Beta.

Peter Harvey

NOTE: A completely rewritten DM is being tested and is to be released
within days.

Hi all,

I have some problems with Postgres 6.3.2 under Linux 2.0.35 and unixODBC 1.0.4.
1. When I built the ODBC driver, the make failed because ld couldn't find
   "-lcrypt". I removed it and all went well.
2. When trying to connect, ODBC gives an error "unsupported frontend protocol".

Im wondering if this is due to the fact that -lcrypt wasn't included. Any
suggestions would be welcome. The odbc test programme is working flawlessly
under WinNT console, so the error must within the postgres driver or unixODBC.
The guys of unixODBC were really helpful but advised me to ask here.

Thanks for your time
Markus
