Alatar,

Are you connecting to a remote Microsoft SQL Server or a remote Sybase server? If you are connecting to a Sybase server, then the advice you received above about installing Open Client is probably best.

If you are trying to connect to MS SQL, FreeTDS is your best route. I have used the Mandrake FreeTDS RPM on Red Hat 7.1 and 7.2 and it works, although YMMV with 7.0. Take a peek in /etc/freetds.conf after installing the RPM and edit it to suit your environment.

Good luck!

update11/23/2001: Obviously this doesn't answer the question he asked, since there is no Solaris version of Microsoft SQL ;)

Oh well, maybe it'll help someone else
