I'm wondering if anyone can help. I have a client who has a Mac G5 running Mac OS X v10.39 and FileMaker Server Adv. 8.04. In their shipping department, they run UPS Worldship software which has been set up to see the FileMaker Server as a ODBC data source to perform a lookup of the shipping information from a FIleMaker Pro invoice data file hosted on the FM Server. They simply type in the invoice number in Worldship and the customer and invoice information fill in from FileMaker. It worked well when they were using FM Server v5.5 but this has broken since upgrading to Server v8.0x. The UPS Worldship for Windows now returns an error when attempting to connect.

When I performed a port scan on the FM Server, the ODBC port 2399 is not showing up, only 5003.

There doesn't seem to be a lot of good documentation for setting this up on FM Server 8. I have installed the SequeLink.bundle driver and enabled it in the ODBC Administrator app. Do I use the localhost IP address (127.0.0.1) or the LAN IP address (192.168.1.x) in the ODBC Administrator DSN setup?

The file path to the SequeLink.bundle driver is: /Library/ODBC/SequeLink.bundle. I am using a System DSN.

Is there a decent tutorial anywhere online on how specifically to set this up? I'm having trouble finding one.

I have attached some screenshots of the incomplete configuration in the Mac OS X ODBC Administrator Application.

Thank you in advance...
