The following table maps the various providers to the operating system and RDBMS versions against which they have been tested (T). The RDBMS-based providers (ArcSDE and MySQL) require that the corresponding RDBMS client is installed. The ODBC provider requires that an ODBC driver be installed on Linux. Windows XP contains the required ODBC drivers.
FDO and its Providers run on the Windows Vista operating system. However, Autodesk cannot guarantee that the underlying file or database that an FDO Provider is connecting to is Vista compatible (except for the Autodesk Spatial Data File format, SDF). Please consult the file or database vendor to verify Vista compatibility.

Note
- The ArcSDE 9.1 client and ArcSDE 9.1 server for Oracle and ArcSDE 9.1 server for SQL Server are required.
- Testing the MyIsam database engine with spatial extension only.
- The MDAC 2.8 ODBC driver manager is tested on Windows for access to all of the named data sources. The intent is to test the new Oracle ODBC driver for read-only access on Linux in the near future.
- File formats 3.0 and 3.2 are supported. An SDF file can have only one schema.
- WFS 1.0.0 and GML 2.1.2
- WMS 1.1.0, WMS 1.1.1, WMS 1.3, and GML 2.1.2
