how to add ODBC DSN to multiple computers

| Hello. I need to set add an SQL ODBC System DSN to each computer on
our domain.
The suggestions I've seen so far involve setting up a GPO startup
script using VBScript to call an API, or a batch file using odbcconf.
I don't know VB, and I could find very little information about how to
use odbcconf.
I would appreciate it if someone could give me a standard solution, if
there is one. I'm a little new to this, so I wouldn't be surprised if
I were completely off the mark.
thanks,
joseph

| If the use of a DSN is not really mandatory for your application, then using
a DSN-Less ODBC connection might be an easier solution.
