If I can't get this to work, i may try a different approach. I thought maybe I could use these settings in Setnet32: "IBM Informix Server" = linux_server "HostName" = sco_server I hoped when logging into the VB program it would log into the SCO server since that is the host and then it would look to the Linux server for the SE database. The SCO server has a sqlhosts entry for the Linux server. It doesn't work I get this error: -957 Cannot create/access database on NFS mount. It's not going over NFS. I can connect with dbaccess running on SCO to the SE database on Linux, but it doesn't seem an ODBC connection from Windows can do the same.
