I did find a way to make it work, but it involves installing the linux
version of perl using the freebsd linux emulation and then building
DBD::ODBC and unixodbc under that also.. But that is stretching it for
me I might as well run linux on all my client machines...
Right now it looks like sqlrelay is the next best choice. sqlrelay has
some nice connection pooling features and it supports unixodbc. I will
post when I have some more info on performance, etc..
