When the database is already running on a local server, you
may specify fewer Connect dialog parameters than usual.
- Start Sybase Central or Interactive SQL and open
the Connect dialog (if it doesn’t appear automatically.)
- On the Identification tab of the dialog, enter a user
ID and a password.
Do one of the following:
If the
server only contains the one database, click OK to connect to it.
If the server contains multiple databases, click
the Database tab of the dialog and specify a database name. This
is usually the database file name, without the path or extension.
Note: If the database is already loaded (started) on the server,
you only need to provide a database name for a successful connection.
The database file is not necessary.
