Dear Jean-Michel,

the paths are defaults in unixODBC. The GUI tool ODBCConfig creates its
files there, too. I didn't know the iODBC is part of unixODBC. In fact it
shouldn't make a difference, to my understanding, but I nevertheless gave it
try. Result is an error message from DataManager:

"[unixODBC][MySQL MaxDB][LIBSQLOD SO][MaxDB]:Unable to connect to data
source;-709 CONNECT: (unknown host  localhost (see /etc/hosts))"

I also doesn't work when I replace localhost with orion8 or the fully
qualified host name in my data source configuration. Suprisingly all the
names that can't be resolved are there in /etc/hosts:

<snip>
# IP-Address  Full-Qualified-Hostname  Short-Hostname
#

127.0.0.1       localhost

# special IPv6 addresses
::1             localhost ipv6-localhost ipv6-loopback

fe00::0         ipv6-localnet

ff00::0         ipv6-mcastprefix
ff02::1         ipv6-allnodes
ff02::2         ipv6-allrouters
ff02::3         ipv6-allhosts
127.0.0.2       orion8.iverbi.de orion8
</snip>

I just don't understand what's wrong. Why can't the host name be resolved?

Thanks again

   Alex
