We would then like to access that data from our mainframe via ODBC to retreive the records.
Since it's not really clear to me what you intend to so, I am assuming the following: + Your mainframe runs a Windows platform + Your OpenBSD machine serves as a database server + You're going for PostgreSQL on your OpenBSD machine as your database choice In that case: install the ODBC plugins available from postgresql.org onto your Windows machine. Set up an ODBC link and retrieve the data from PostgreSQL throuth that ODBC link. You shouldn't need to install an ODBC package onto your OpenBSD machine: installing on your Windows mainframe should suffice. All you'd need to install onto your OpenBSD machine is the PostgreSQL package. Hope this helps, Rogier -- If you don't know where you're going, any road will get you there.
