Hi All,

Anyone here has a teradata box ? Are you able to connect to it from withing
postgresql?

I would like to pull 1or 2 tables from the box (sync) and was wondering if
there's anyway to do that w/o using dbi-link.

I actually am trying dbi-link but it seem as though it doesn't support
DBD::Teradata.

Based on the error descriptions, and some googling, seems like Teradata.pm
does not support the "column_info" DBI method of getting the column
descriptions and such.

is there any other methods available?
