Servlets & databases a part

[Pol Millan]

I know that this is a bit of off-topic question but it also involves servlet configuration so I go for it.   I've got these servlets seating on Apache for Linux and I've got a SQL Server database seating on NT.   I'd like the servlets to be able to talk to the database and I do the following:         try       {         Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");       }catch(ClassNotFoundException e){System.out.println("Error "+e);}       try       {         String surl="jdbc:odbc:147.403.167.4:1443/mydb";         con=DriverManager.getConnection(surl);         stmt=con.createStatement();       }catch(SQLException e){System.out.println("Error "+e);} Assuming that 147.403.167.4 is the IP address of the server where I've got SQL Server, that SQL Server listens on port 1443 and that mydb is a ODBC data source.   The message I get back says: 'Data source not found and no default driver specified'   What am I doing wrong?   Many thanks to everyone.   Pol Millan
