I am having a difficult time connecting my Informix database (running on Digital Unix 4.0) to a DEC Alpha machine running NT 4.0. I have tried Informix- Connect, OpenLink (multi-tiered), as well as the Intersolv product. None of these packages provide a client piece that will install on an Alpha NT platform. I also tried to install the above packages under FX!32 Intel emulation and the results were scary. Even if that had worked, I would like to stay with software written directly for Alpha processors. Can anyone provide insight as to the file that I need to download for my client side? I would prefer to stay with the OpenLink package if at all possible.

Hi Aaron, The problem with our Alpha Client has been resolved, the Client file being pointed to during the downloaded was incorrect. Please download from our WEB site (http://www.openlinksw.com) again and you will have a native NT Alpha 32 bit OPenLink client Regards, Hugh Williams OpenLink Software In article <7eddne$61v$1@nnrp1.dejanews.com>, Aaron Shilts <ashilt01@sprintspectrum.com> wrote: > I am having a difficult time connecting my Informix database (running on > Digital Unix 4.0) to a DEC Alpha machine running NT 4.0.
