Hi y´all!

I have the same problem, but I would like to connect on a server which is somewhere else, with my local machine. It means, I´m running my program on my local machine, but I´m using a database on a completely different place. What I´m getting all the time is this exception:
------------------------------------------------------
JdbcOdbcDriver class loaded
DriverManager.initialize: jdbc.drivers = null
JDBC DriverManager initialized
registerDriver: driver[className=sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver,sun.jdbc.od bc.JdbcOdbcDriver@480457]

It would be great if somebody could help me. I guess the driver is correct, but the adress could be wrong, I´m not really sure!

Thanks,
