if i remember correctly ZODBCDA only works on Win32 platform. 

also Access 97 is not a client/server database, so you cant connect to
it from unix directly to it.

perhaps the ODBC Socket Server from http://odbc.linuxbox.com/index.html
will work (haven't tried it). 

You have to write a python client for the ODBC Socket Server (if noone
else has written it, don't know).

Ciao,
Jochen
