ODBC Connection on Windows XP

[Greg Lindstrom]

I am running Python 2.3 on Windows XP and am trying to connect to an 
ODBC datasource.  I have done this many times on this same box but this 
time I get an error message saying

dbi.operation-error: [WSOCK32.DLL]Connection refused, is the host 
listener running? (#10061) in LOGIN

Not having seen this before, and having used the odbc module for about a 
year now, I'm at a quandary; what does this mean and what do I do to fix it?

Thanks!
