I haven't used openldap, so I'm not sure, but I do know about PostgreSQL and
ODBC.

ODBC is a separate project than is PostgreSQL, chances are if you are on a UNIX
system, you do not have ODBC installed. ODBC is a conection management layer
that works on many databases.

hop on over to someplace like http://www.unixodbc.org and download the ODBC
system. This will satisfy the need for lodbc and provide SQLDriverConnect.
