ODBC connection from Linux machine

Hi Brian,

Omnis only released an Omnis ODBC driver for Mac and windows I believe, 
so a direct access from Linux probably isn't possible.

I take it you are trying to use SQL from some Linux solution, and trying 
to connect directly to the Omnis database.

Can you not use a SQL database instead of an Omnis Datafile?
