On the flip side, if you only want to access your DB in Windows you can
use Java-based SQL Clients -- the default JDBC driver in Sun's JDK is
JDBC-ODBC bridge. You will need the drivers mentioned by Orly in his
previous post.
If you want to do the reverse (client is in Windows, DB in Linux), you can
use the same Java applications with a MySQL JDBC driver.
