texte = It can be done. (http://www.unixodbc.org/) 1) get unixodbc to compile under OSX. You'll have to change some default settings etc. ( Sorry, I don't have the OSX unixodbc tweeks :( I used Linux when I used 4.x and unixodbc worked. For OSX help, you might try the unixodbc list, the author answered my questions a few years ago, when I asked. 2) get unixodbc to talk to MySQL from the unixodbc cmd line. Under linux, I installed MyODBC from the rpm, to get all the dependencies, That would work as a 'localhost'. To get remote connections, I then compiled from source. As I remember I had permission problems, and it drove me nuts, until I seup Webmin, and the MySQL module made setting them easy. I still use Webmin on all my OSX and Linux boxes for Apache and MySQL admin. The latest MySQL plugin has a single button MySQL backup.
