[unixODBC-support] odbcinst remove dsn command

[sathiya dasan]

Hi Nick,
           As you suggested i have used strace and found out that, command "
*odbcinst -u -s -l -n MSSQLTestServer*" is deleting the UserDSN not the
system DSN. I have added the details below.
          In that you can see that */root/.odbc.ini* is user_data sources
and so user dsn only keep changing not the system dsn.

root at sathiya:/home/sathiya# odbcinst -u -s -l -n MSSQLTestServer
odbcinst: DSN removed (if it existed at all). ODBC_BOTH_DSN was used as the
search path.
