Re: HELP - Connection Refused by Data Source

I do not know the reason for you problem. I haven't tested the Lite versions of their drivers. If you have a server where the OpenLink request broker can run I would try the server based (OpenLink Workgroup or Enterprise edition) drivers. They are the onse that give you all the advantages of OpenLink. You click directly in the matrixes on their download page to download the right version for your hardware/OS.
