Accessing Services on Alternate Domains

Use a connection string parameter to access services on alternate domains. ODBC typically connects to a default domain, but you can specify a value for the connection string parameter ConnectDomain on a connection object to view alternate domains on a connection object basis.

Changing Domains using the ODBC Property Sheet

You can use ConnectDomain in the Custom Properties field of the ODBC property sheet to change domains.

Sample ODBC Driver Setup

Changing Domains Using Scripting

You can use script to change domains.

using (DbConnection conn = new OdbcConnection("DSN=CygNet;ServiceFilter=MYSITE.FAC;ConnectDomain=5308"))

{

conn.Open();
