Thisis a problem I cannot figure out.

Home setup:

- Windows 98
- Interbase 5.0 Server
- Personal Web Server
- ODBC Source (System DSN) = "mydsn"
- Connection string in my ASP code: Conn.Open
"mydsn","myuserid","mypassword"

That works fine.

My office setup:

- Windows NT 4 w/ Service Pack 3
- Interbase 5.0 Server
- IIS 4
- ODBC Source (System DSN) = "mydsn"
- Connection string in my ASP code: Conn.Open
"mydsn","myuserid","mypassword"

That does NOT work. I keep getting the error:
"Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Visigenic][ODBC InterBase 4.x Driver][InterBase]unavailable database"

Ladies and gentlemen I have tried over 50 different combinations of DSN
types (user, and system), and connect strings in my ASP code. Nothing works.

The only difference I see is the operating system and the Web server, though
I strongly suspect the Web server is the key here.

I would think that my work setup is a very common setup for many people
here. Has anyone experienced this problem before? Can anyone help? Is it
something I am doing/not doing, or did Microsoft deliberately design the
ODBC layer to NOT work with other databases besides SQL Server?

ANy help would be appreciate, thanks.
