Rene,
You can use OpenLink's Multi-Tier driver. We don't directly support
Paradox, but there is a MS driver on most NT systems that we can work with,
in a 'piggyback' method.
Use the iODBC-PHP HOWTO at http://www.iodbc.org/odbc-phpHOWTO.html
Install the OpenLink Multi-Tier drivers for linux client and Windows server,
from http://www.openlinksw.com
Then:
1. create DSN on the Win box using the MS Driver for Paradox, call it 'foo'
for this example
2. create a DSN on the Linux box, using OpenLink's driver, and:
- hostname is the Win box
- ServerType is Odbc
- Database is foo
- other parameters as needed
If you run into problems, free support is available at
http://www.openlinksw.com/support/suppindx.htm
Best regards,
Andrew
