ODBC connection error when not on domain

[sethisroot]

I'm getting the following error when attempting to connect via ODBC to OpenEdge 10.1B.

[DataDirect][ODBC Progress OpenEdge Wire Protocol driver] Connection refused ... ErrNum = 3

Seems like a fairly common error except for the error number. I've found no one else with the same error as this.

Both machines are Windows and are remote. Firewalls are open. If I connect to the domain, everything works. If I connect remotely without a domain and just use the IP or hostname, it breaks with the error above.

Note that when I say domain, I'm changing the location of the driver in the registry to point to either the shared drive with the driver or a local copy I've made on the client machine.

I'm not a Progress customer so support is limited. The product was installed along with another product called Epicor which has refused to support connecting remotely.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Did you ever find a solution?
I have a test environment - one server and one desktop - no domain, just a workgroup.
On the server, the ODBC DSN connection works.
From the desktop, I get the same "Errnum = 3" you mentioned.

In a production environment I don't have any trouble with ODBC connections from the desktops.

This is 10.1B Progress - Also for Epicor Vantage 8.
