The standard for ODBC is to setup connections in the ODBC manager as data sources, which are then referenced by name, the so-called data source name or DSN.

The reason is fairly obvious: using DSNs you manage and control your database connections in the OS rather than the various applications.

This is how I always did it as well, years ago when I developed for Windows platforms. I don't think there was even a way to specify a direct hostname back then.

ODBC users here, how come we're opposed to following the standard usage ? Are DSNs just not that popular anymore ?
