An ODBC DSN has been setup successfully on wine. "wine isql DSN" has verified the connection. Now a linux application wishes to connect this DSN. Is it possible? Proxies like ODBCSocketServer or DBTCP would be the last choice because there shouldn't be any need for yet another layer. Put it this way. It is possible to do it the other way round (i.e. wine application connects to unixODBC DSN). Why can't this be done? It is a jaunty running wine 1.0.1.

If there's a Linux driver you can use that: ask the database vendor if there's a driver. Otherwise use iODBC < http://www.iodbc.org > or UnixODBC < http://www.unixodbc.org/ > and look for a driver for your database driver there.> Proxies like ODBCSocketServer or DBTCP would be the last choice > because there shouldn't be any need for yet another layer. >They are not necessary.
