jdbc odbc bridge on linux
Hi All, I posted question about how to use Sun's jdbc.odbc bridge from jsp on linux to access SQL server on windows. because all examples I saw were using LOCAL dsn like jdbc:odbc:dsnName. but how to do it if the JSP is on linux and the SQL server is on a remote host. something like jdbc:odbc:@host:port:DB_name(or DSN)??? I am kind of confused!! TIA Jerry
Re: jdbc odbc bridge on linux
The jdbc odbc bridge requires an odbc driver on the local machine. The local datasource then points to the remote machine that the server is on, rather than the JDBC URL. The jdbc odbc driver is also not multi-threaded, so not a good choice for using with Tomcat. I'm not aware of any free jdbc drivers that will work with SQL Server, but there are a number of commercial solutions. I use the OPTA 2000 driver from www.inetsoftware.de.

The number of fancy-formatted messages is on the rise and if we don't nip this in the bud, we may find ourselves in a position where folks who don't use the latest version of $MAILCLIENT are unable to read the messages. I myself use MS Outlook 2000 but I have no right to assume what the others are using. Hence the warning in the FAQ. This is not my first post on this topic and I'm afraid it won't be the last. I'm just trying to create awareness of the problem and I realise I sometimes have to resort to not-so-nice means to draw the subscribers' attention to it. If I can convince one person not to use formatted messages on the list, I'll be a happy man. I don't claim to be an all-knowing guru, but what I do know I will not share with those who are arrogant enough not to respect the rules of the list they're asking for help from. Regards, Emir.
RE: jdbc odbc bridge on linux
Here is a free JDBC Driver for MSSQL 7.0 http://www.thinweb.com/tw_download_twfreetds.html It is based on FreeTDS from www.freetds.org which also has it's own JDBC Driver. I don't know what differences they hold. I wouldn't say it is production quality. But it does do simple SELECT's etc. We have a few problems with it and thus use a commercial version also.

Pine was able to turn the MIME into text, but it did strange things with the mailing list information. My vote would be [X] +1 -> Plain Text only.

[X] +1 -> Plain Text only. Strip HTML on the mailing list. [ ] 0 -> I don't give a damn shit. [ ] -1 -> You mad? I love HTML in messages and want to keep using it. New subscribers should be POLITELY (he he he!) directed to read the FAQ upon subscription.
