The difficulties you're seeing then aren't that surprising because they haven't felt comfortable enough to officially register. >> You're right. I got to them through https://github.com/JuliaDB ODBC actually works fine on Linux/OSX through the unixODBC library. It can be installed through a variety of means, but works quite well from what I've seen. Postgres is actually next on my list to test with ODBC (so far the testing has focused on Teradata, SQL Server, and MySQL), so if I find time in the next few days, I'll try to put together an example and share it here. >> The status page indicates errors with julia 0.4 and Linux.
