Re: ODBC and Firewalls

Hi Look in your /etc/services file, and try to find the service that Informix uses (which is in your onconfig file). From the services file there will be a number becide the service name (1526 by default). If you set the firewall to allow comms on that TCP port, it should work. At least it does for ONLDS. Hope it works Regards Mark Andrews On Fri, 12 Feb 1999, Rajendra Singh wrote: > We have a Linux machine acting as a firewall connected to the Internet.
