Very Computer

Hello,
        I'm traying to connect our main Progress 7.3c database running
in a IBM RS6000-R40 machine with AIX 4.2, with a PC running Delphi3 and
VB4 applications .
   I've downloaded the OpenLink Lite for Progress8 Large (32 bit) ODBC
driver and now I'm trying to use it, but I get no connection.
   My scenario:
      - In main computer the database is started with -S myservice -N
TCP parameters
      - In my PC running Win95, I've installed Progress 7.3d client,
ODBC data source administrator(latest version)
      - I've configurated a datasource with the following session
options:
         -db MyMainDatabase -S myservice -H myhost -N TCP
      - Both computers have the host and service files configurated
      - If I connect my PC Progress client to the Main database the
connection is established without any problem
      - If I'm trying to connect the Main database using the OpenLink
demo programm I'm getting every time an error :
     SQL State:08004    
     Native: 0
     Message : [OpenLink][ODBC][Driver] connection rejected by data
source.

    What is wrong in my scenario ?
    Is possible to connect Progress server running in a UNIX machine
with PC running Win95 in an efficient mode ?
     Thank in advance for your help.

                  Tibi.

On the server, you have to set some env. variables (ODI*) before starting
the server. This could be the problem. I have used only the 16bit ODBC to
connect to Progress V7.3 via openlink (Lite) driver. If you have trouble,
please contact OpenLink support.

Hi Tibodli,

Please ensure you have downloaded the very latest cut of our 32 & 16 Bit
Single Tier (OpenLink  Lite) ODBC Drivers for Progress, the earlier release
had some incompatibilities at the Progress Client Networking Layer (no 16
to 32 bit thunking support etc.), these issues have now been resolved with
the release of 8.2A.

The new Lite release supports V7 & V8 DB Engines running on NT, WIN 95,
UNIX, VMS
