Thanks Ben. We don't see this as a datasource type on Linux, is it a Windows
only option? If so, is there a way to create an ODBC datasource in the CFMX
Admin on Linux?

Yes that is built into MX. It's so you can create an ODBC connection via
the ODBC control panel, then you use the ODBC Socket option and tell it
the name of the DSN you created in the ODBC Control Panel. It's used
when there is a Database that CF doesn't have a driver for. I am
currently using it for a Progress Database we have.

Hi,
My colleague and I are new to Linux and notice there is no ODBC Socket
option in the datasources page, is this a "feature" of MX? If so, can I
create ODBC datasources some other way in ColdFusion MX on Linux (RedHat).

TIA,
Robbie
