A component of Oterro is the ODBC driver, which needs to be installed on the same machines that Witango is. You’ll need to use the ODBC control panel to setup data sources before Witango can access them. I suspect that the ODBC driver can access the Oterro engine across the network, this is how it normally works, but I don’t have it setup here to test.
One note, you need to use the 32-bit version. Since Witango 5.5 (and 6.0) are 32-bit applications, they cannot access ODBC connections setup under a 64-bit driver. Going forward, Witango is going to support database connectivity through ODBC and JDBC only. Native drivers are messy to support and will only return to the product if there is enough demand.

I believe (not completely sure) that the database can be on a different machine, but the Oterro driver needs to be on the same machine as the Witango engine.

We have oterro 2.6 that we use with RTango but would like to upgrade to Witango. Also, does the Rbase database need to be on the same machine as Witango?
