    5. Log in to Mac OS X machines and open the Applications folder. Look for an OpenLink=>Universal Data Access Drivers folder structure.

    6. Log in to Unix machines and use the find / -name file -print command to search for the following files: oplrqb, oplodbc.s*, openlink.ini

    Discovery of one or more of these files confirms the presence of OpenLink's Multi-Tier, Single-Tier or Express Edition drivers. If you want to install new software, you have two options:

    7. Remove the old software and start fresh.

    8. Obtain version information from the existing software and obtain new components from the same build.
