SQL Anywhere server components   You must use the network server (dbsrv12.exe) if you want to access an Open Server over a network. You can use the personal server (dbeng12.exe) as an Open Server only for connections from the same computer.

TCP/IP   You must have a TCP/IP protocol stack to use SQL Anywhere as an Open Server, even if you are not connecting over a network.

Sybase Open Client components   The Sybase Open Client libraries provide the network libraries your application needs to communicate via TDS if your application uses Sybase Open Client.

jConnect   If your application uses JDBC, you need jConnect and a Java Runtime Environment. SQL Anywhere supports jConnect 5.5 and 6.0.5. To download either version of jConnect, go to  http://www.sybase.com/products/informationmanagement/softwaredeveloperkit/jconnect.

DSEdit   You need DSEdit, the directory services editor, to make server names available to your Sybase Open Client application. On Unix platforms, this utility is called sybinit.

DSEdit is not included with SQL Anywhere, but is included with Sybase Open Server software.
