<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have set up a UMN Mapserver on Linux that
uses shape files. Now some cities on the map shold be marked. In the "Virtual
Spatial Data" document I found a description how to connect to a MySQL Database
over ODBC system DSN. Points that should be shown are in MySQL DB with
xy-data. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to set up a System DSN on
Linux without physical access to the server?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Sorry for the post, but I'm a Linux
Newbie...</FONT></DIV>
