The file name on CRAN is RODBC_0.8-2.tar.gz, so I suspect Netscape or
something has mangled it. If you can get it downloaded with that
name, this should work (and did for me a few hours ago, see below).
BTW, on Windows it is Rcmd, on Unix/Linux R CMD, so I found `RCMD'
a bit confusing.
Alternatively, I rebuilt that package on Windows this morning, and it
is now available pre-compiled as a zip file at
http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/RODBC.zip
Please use that in preference to a version on CRAN (it will get there
tomorrow), as the help will be in a better state (but older builds
do work).
