It seems that DBD::ODBC module works only with local databases, according to
the following document:

What you mean by third party ODBC software ?

Well if you use DBD::ODBC for which you will have to have third party ODBC
software installed, then just set up a DSN and use that in your connection.
Anyways just see perldoc DBD::Informix and perldoc DBD::ODBC for different
connect methods.
