I tried to compile the current version fo MyODBC but the host type is
unknown so it will not compile.


I installed PostgreSQL as it comes with ODBC drivers and when I try to
connect I get the following errors:

(null)(5): Invalid access (permissions?)

[iODBC][Driver Manager]Dialog failed, SQLSTATE=IM008


My preference would be to install MyODBC and use MySQL as well as
unixODBC as this is what I develop with under Linux.



Can anyone help me get any or all of this stuff working under OS X?


TIA

Nick Gorham from EasySoft was very helpful in getting unixODBC and the
ODBC driver for PostgreSQL working under OS X 10.1.

Thanks Nick!
