ODBC is a protocol from Microsoft and is only implemented on Windows (3.x, NT,95) and Mac-OS. I don´t think that it makes sence to implement a client ODBC site on a UNIX server...

Here is how ODBC works:

On Client Side:

	Client Application


		*

	Client Application ODBC (must be included in the Client Appl)


		*

		*

		*

	ODBC Manager (is common and shipped due MS)


		*

		*

		*

	ODBC Server for ORACLE (or something other)


		*

	ODBC to Oracle API Interface


		*

	SQL*NET (if it is a remote Server)


		*

		*

On Server Side:	*


		*

	SQL*NET 


		*

	Oracle Database

As you can see, you will NOT need any ODBC on the HP. Using only SQL*NET cuts a lot of overhead for ODBC away.
