Hi! I've got a pgsql database running on a linux system. However if have to access it from windoze clients (Win2000) via ODBC. So far I have installed the ODBC-Drivers for pgsql on the Win2000 client but I do not know how to make the databases visible for Win. Do I need Samba or anything else? Please let me know!
regards

You need only TCP/IP conection to your Linux server and right access permission on your postgresql server...

Thanks, at least I can see it from "outside" now.
Next problem is something like an "Invalid packet length" in the pgsql-logs... why that?

Plus the fact that ODBC can not connect because of an TDP (?)-Buffer-trouble. Sorry I can't reproduce the error message as the ODBC setup programm is kinda moody. regards
