But
- I'm not running the pages anonymously, login is being triggered. So
the "account used for anonymous access" shouldn't be relevant, right?
- my odbc connection call passes the DSN along with a user ID and
password (the same ones used on the servers which work)
- the error I'm getting is a generic "client unable to establish
connection", not a "user id rejected" (or whatever the appropriate
message is: I've seen that in other cases).

Does that change your opinion?

(But I'm still trying to dig into this...)
