:-( Bad information.

I don't know. You have to search the pgsql-interfaces archive. Maybe
try google. Maybe someone else know it.
BTW what about service pack?

I see in psqlODBC that it use only host=xxx - use host name lookups.
I don't know what is problematic in host name lookups in WinNT 4.0.
There is hostaddr=yyy in libpq which doesn't use host name lookups.
So if you could compile psqlODBC yourself I advise you change
lines in function LIBPQ_connect in connection.c:
- conninfo = (char *)malloc((sizeof(char) * strlen(" host=") + strlen(self->connInfo.server) + 1));
+ conninfo = (char *)malloc((sizeof(char) * strlen(" hostaddr=") + strlen(self->connInfo.server) + 1));
- conninfo = strcpy(conninfo," host=");
+ conninfo = strcpy(conninfo," hostaddr=");

(- means original line, + means new line). I don't see trivial patch
for this behaviour yet so I can't create official patch for it.

Don't you strip it from begin? Or do you enable mylog output
under Global button? Some informations is missing.
