Linux

To determine the location of the configuration files:

# odbcinst -j

Will return output similar to the following:

unixODBC 2.2.11
DRIVERS............: /etc/odbcinst.ini
SYSTEM DATA SOURCES: /etc/odbc.ini
USER DATA SOURCES..: /root/.odbc.ini

The Recital Driver information can be seen in the 'odbcinst.ini' file:

[Recital]
Description		= Recital ODBC Driver
Driver		= /opt/recital/drivers/libodbc_recital.so
Setup		= /opt/recital/drivers/libodbc_recital.so
FileUsage		= 1
UsageCount	= 1

The Recital installer also adds the following DSN to the system 'odbc.ini' file:

[Recital ODBC test]
Driver	= Recital 
DATABASE	= ODBC:RECITAL:SERVERNAME=?;USERNAME=?;PASSWORD=?;DATABASE=odbc_test;

Note: The '?' can be used for the servername, username and password where the data is on the local server and DB_LOCAL_LOGIN is enabled.

Driver          = Recital
DATABASE                = ODBC:RECITAL:SERVERNAME=192.168.1.3;USERNAME=user;PASSWORD=password;DATABASE=southwind;

[dir_test]
Driver          = Recital
DATABASE                = ODBC:RECITAL:SERVERNAME=192.168.1.3;USERNAME=user;PASSWORD=password;DIRECTORY=/opt/recital/data/odbc_test;

[odbc_test]
Driver          = Recital
