>OSX frontier database access

I have exchanged a couple of emails with Steve Tallent...

I "cheated" and used XMLRPC and Java to glue the pieces together.

I'll share the code with anyone who wants it...it's no where near 
production quality, but it does work ;-)
and sort of even can do LDAP queries as well...it was all experimental.

I suspect that Steve's work in this area will be more efficient than 
what I have done.

I use Brian Manley's XMLRPC for Java 
(http://www.xmlrpc.com/discuss/msgReader$1923?mode=day)

I use the Netscape LDAP jdk

I use the thin JDBC class drivers from Oracle (9i for Solaris - Java 
is neat - works on OS X) to access some production databases that I 
need.

I use the OpenBase JDBC drivers to talk to a local OpenBase database.
