Transferring the ODBC drivers to the UNIX server

After you have copied the ODBC driver files to the Windows PC, you must transfer them to the UNIX server.

Use a transfer protocol such as FTP to transfer the following ODBC driver file from the Windows PC to the UNIX server for your UNIX operating system:
- HP-UX: NNhp11.tar.Z
- IBM AIX: NNaix.tar.Z
- Sun Solaris: NNsol.tar.Z
Change to the directory where you transferred the driver file:
```
cd <directory to which ODBC driver file was transferred>
```
Uncompress command to uncompress the tar file:
- HP-UX: uncompress NNhp11.tar.Z
- IBM AIX: uncompress NNaix.tar.Z
- Sun Solaris: uncompress NNsol.tar.Z
Use the tar command to extract the files and directories included in the .tar file:
- HP-UX: tar xvf NNhp11.tar
- IBM AIX: tar xvf NNaix.tar
- Sun Solaris: tar xvf NNsol.tar

Installing the ODBC drivers on UNIX

Use the following command to install the ODBC drivers:
```
ksh unixmi.ksh
```
You can install the entire pack of drivers or only one driver at a time. If you do not install the entire pack of drivers, you should install the driver for dBase in addition to the driver that you will be using to connect to your database. The dBase program includes two files that you can use to test whether you have correctly installed and configured your ODBC drivers.
