Ok here is the setup:

Host machine running vista ultimate, vmware running on host, win xp x64 running inside vmware, SQL server 05 running in x64. I also have fedora 8 running in vmware as well. I added the x64 sql server to the ODBC sources in vista and can connect via access or sql managment studio in vista. I cannot connect to sql server in fedora via OO-base. I need to add the sql server as a data source but cant seem to get unixODBC manager gui to run. I tried odbc_config from term and get nil. Am I going about this the wrong way? I googled my arse off and cant seem to find a clear tutorial on how to get the sql server into the odbc driver.ini so it will show up in base. I installed unixodbc via software installer in fedora but I think I only got the partial and not any kind of gui. Any help would be appreciated.

Nevermind, figured it out. Needed unixODBC latest, and tds odbc driver source. All works well now.
