RE: [cobalt-users] Linux Newbie: How do I setup an ODBC Connection



Send an email to tech@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and they'll give you a complete run-down
on how to do this.

The gist of it is:

1. Have a valid NT user account for access to the Access DB files.
2. Run setsqlnk (located in /home/chiliasp/asp-apache-3000)
3. Follow the sequence and then test the sqlnk dsn.
4. Create a DSN via the ASP Administration Console.
5. Enter the sqlnkDSN while defining the DSN via the web UI.
6. In your ASP code, use the DSN you created via the web UI.

i.e. sqlnkDSN is called AccessNT - and DSN via WebUI is called AccessLnx

It looks like this:

NT + Access <---> Sequelink DSN <---> C!ASP DSN <---> ASP Code
