Hi! all.....
i am facing a problem while executing the following code.The program runs fine if i give DSN variable as....
String dsn = "jdbc dbc:Test";
but when i try to give my DSN variable by attaching my machine ip address to it in the following manner an error results..
String dsn = "jdbc dbc://172.17.211.38:400/Test";
i m connecting to an MS Access database with dsn name as 'Test' configured thru Data Sources(ODBC) in control panel.....and by now u must have understood that i want to connect to my database from a different machine in the LAN....pls. help me.
the error is:

Welcome to the Ranch 'Zombie UOR'!
You'll find this forum a great place to seek help on JDBC, and there aren't many rules you'll have to worry about, but one is that proper names are required. Please take a look at the JavaRanch Naming Policy and change your display name to match it.
In particular, your display name must be a first and a last name separated by a space character, and must not be obviously fictitious.
Thanks!
