JDBC Servlet to ODBC Base

Hello,
    I'm running Tomcat 3.1 on SuSe Linux 6.4 (Apache 1.34) and I need to
have my servlets connect to an ODBC database running on a Win32
platform.  Does anyone have any advice on how to make JDBC-ODBC
connection??  Of course, I'm always looking for the most elegant
solution possible...

    Any help will be appreciated.

Regards,
Mathew

Mathew,

You can try
http://www.objectweb.org/RmiJdbc/RmiJdbcHomePage.htm

This is a remote driver that would allow you to connect from you Linux
machine to another (possibly native) driver running on your Win32 machine.
I have not tried it, but the concept is simple and elegant.  If you try it,
let me know how it works.
