Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> connecting to database using odbc
Hi, I am trying to connect to a oracle 8.0.4 from my home machine that is
connected to campus using TCP/IP. Once I have the connection, I am not sure
how to configure the odbc side to connect to the oracle server. I have
downloaded the odbc drivers from technect.oracle.com and have had no success.
I have "played" around with ODBC32 admin, trying to basically set the server
name,password, connect string (which I am still not sure what it is), but
none of this has helped. If any one can give me a few pointers, I will really
appreciate it. Please note that I am using WinNT 4.0 from home.
