-  Manual Installation 

   Install the bridge server manually with the following shell
   commands.

    $ su
    # mkdir /usr/local/var/odbcbridge
    # chown nobody /usr/local/var/odbcbridge
    # cp bridge/odbcbridge.conf /usr/local/etc
    # cp bridge/odbclogins /usr/local/etc
    # chmod 0600 /usr/local/etc/odbclogins
    # chown nobody /usr/local/etc/odbclogins
    # mkdir /usr/local/etc/init.d
    # cp bridge/unixodbc /usr/local/etc/init.d
    # cp bridge/odbcbridge /usr/local/sbin
    # chmod +x /usr/local/sbin/odbcbridge

  If everything is installed correctly, you should be able
  to start and stop the server by typing:

    # /usr/local/etc/init.d/unixodbc start
    # /usr/local/etc/init.d/unixodbc stop

  Edit each line of the file /usr/local/etc/odbclogins for
