hallo monks, like always there is more then one way..I used directly the registry and it works fine. this way permit to create easely system DSN on remote machines. The follow code is only the sub which create the DSN but with Tie::Registry is easier destroy then create.
#!perl #(...) use Win32::TieRegistry ( Delimiter=>"/" ); #(...) sub Crea_dsn ################################################## { my $ip = shift; my $dbq= shift; my $nuovo_dsn= shift; my $descrizione="DB utente "; unless( $registry_remoto = $Registry->Connect( "$ip", "LMachine" )){r +eturn "Errore connessione registry remoto: $^E"} my $odbc_ini = $registry_remoto->{"Software/ODBC/ODBC.INI"}||return " +$^E"; my $odbc_data_sources= $odbc_ini->{"ODBC Data Sources"}||return "$^E" +; foreach my $dsn(sort keys %{$odbc_data_sources}) { $dsn=~s/\///; $dsn eq $nuovo_dsn ? return "$nuovo_dsn gia\' in uso\n" : +next; } $odbc_data_sources->{$nuovo_dsn} = "Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)"| +|return "$^E"; $odbc_ini->{$nuovo_dsn}={'DBQ'=>$dbq, 'Description'=>$descrizione, 'Driver'=>'C:\WINNT\System32\odbcjt32.dll', 'DriverID'=>['0x00000019','REG_DWORD'], 'FIL'=>'MS Access;', 'SafeTransactions'=>['0x00000000','REG_DWORD' +], 'UID'=>'', 'Engines'=>{ 'Jet'=>{'ImplicitCommitSync'=>'' +, 'MaxBufferSize'=>['0x0000 +0800','REG_DWORD'], #(hex(800)) da 2048 'PageTimeout'=>['0x000000 +05','REG_DWORD'], 'Threads'=>['0x00000003', +'REG_DWORD'], 'UserCommitSync'=>'yes' } } }||return "$^E"; return ("creato DSN: $nuovo_dsn su $dbq"); }
I hope this can help
