Re: Versioning

Is there an easy way to test the ODBC and DSN settings external to
the third party app I am using? I'm haven't made odbc connections
before.

Postmaster seems to be running with -i and I see it is listening to
5432 when I check netstat. The third party app either complains
about not being able to connect when I try to configure the DSN, and
failure to login when I try to make a connection using that DSN.

How can I get better error messages? Is there a better app to use to
confirm the odbc connection ability?
