the proper settings are in Crystal Reports to get it to connect to the
Intermapper database?


You'll need to start by creating a System DSN in the Data Sources (ODBC) control panel on your system using the postgresql ODBC driver. The settings for that are:

Data source: whatever name you wish to give it

Database: intermapper

Server: The DNS name or IP address of the machine where you've installed InterMapper DataCenter

User Name, Password: The username and password you set up for "Internal Database Users" when installing IMDC. (If you didn't do so, you can go back and do it by logging into IMDC and choosing "Change Settings" in IMDC section of the services page. If the Database Settings page doesn't come up, click on the Database Settings tile on the left hand side of the page.)

SSL Mode: I usually use prefer

Port: 8183

Once you've set that up and successfully tested the connection, you can use the Data source name you set up to refer to the database in Crystal Reports.
