You need ODBC drivers installed on your server. You set them up using your Windows interface, then add your DSN through the CF administrator. We used to use the Merant drivers for Informix, but I think they were bought out. OpenLink has Informix drivers. http://www.openlinksw.com/

You should then be able to make the connection via ODBC Socket. That said, you're always going to be better off with a native driver. I can't imagine why connectivity for the non-MS database engines *wasn't* included in the Pro edition. Perhaps one of the Macromedia worthies here can enlighten us...
