Ingres Net and ODBC for Ingres 6.4.

Author	Message
lentengli #1 / 4	Ingres Net and ODBC for Ingres 6.4. I am trying to connect a Windows 2000 Server to an Ingres database running on a Unix server. I have installed the Ingres ODBC (V2.80.00.72 software on the Windows 2000 server, but I am unable to select a V-Node other than "local". After creating a new 'vnode' entry in the Unix server using the "netu" utility, I created a new ODBC DSN again but still see the V-Node as "local" only. Why? Please help? Also, do i need to install Ingres Net on the Windows 2000 Server before installing the Ingres ODBC? If yes, where can I download Ingres Net? Thanks in advance. -- Posted via http://www.***.com/

You need a vnode for the unix server on the Windows client. Think of a vnode as a local name for a remote Ingres installation. The vnodes on the unix server are irrelevant to the Windows client machine. The only vnodes your ODBC stuff can see are the local ones on the Windows machine. This should (partially) answer your next question, too. Quote: >Also, do i need to install Ingres Net on the Windows 2000 Server before >installing the Ingres ODBC? If yes, where can I download Ingres Net? You have to have Ingres Net installed and set up before you can set up an ODBC data source pointing at Ingres. I'm not sure if there is a Net download; if you have the Ingres installation CD set, you should be able to load a Windows client from it (typically the Windows stuff is on CD 1). -- K/B Computer Associates www.kbcomputer.com Ingres, Unix, VMS Consulting and Training

Rob Feeha #3 / 4	Ingres Net and ODBC for Ingres 6.4. You can't use CA's ODBC with out a net server running on the local PC. So you do need to install Ingres NET or Ingres client. ODBC might be free but the client is not. Quote: > I am trying to connect a Windows 2000 Server to an Ingres database > running on a Unix server.

M.Cress #4 / 4	Ingres Net and ODBC for Ingres 6.4. Isn't it about time that CA started offering a basic windows Ingres Net client for free download? (as opposed to just the ODBC driver which is useless without it.) I'd have thought it would encourage more people to use Ingres and might even increase market share...
