Hi,

I apologized for my not so good english.

I am working on R-2.5.0 on Sun Solaris 10 machine. I have successfully
installed R and RODBC library in it.

When i am trying to connect to Sybase server using odbcDriverConnect
command, the execution is getting hang (No error is coming, no handle has
been returned back; the code execution stopped at odbcDriverConnect
statement). Following is the piece of code i am trying executing:

library(RODBC)
inchannel <- odbcDriverConnect("Driver={SYBASE ASE ODBC
Driver};srvr="tt_lyb";db=archive;uid=guest;pwd=guest")
....
....
....

When I tested this connection in Windows on R-2.5.0, it worked well and
returned me the connection's handle.

Kindly help me.

Thanks in advance.

Regards
Sar
