Here is the chain of communication I am trying to achieve: (Unix Server) DBD::Proxy => (Macintosh) DBI::ProxyServer => (Macintosh) DBD::ODBC => (Macintosh) Filemaker Pro ODBC interface I read in a few places how piece of this might work, but I am concerned with the whole puzzle. Before I begin on the task of implementing this, I thought someone could tell me if this is even possible? can it be done? thanks in advance, steve # ===== Want to unsubscribe from this list? # ===== Send mail with body "unsubscribe" to macperl-request@macperl.org
