thanks, so you are saying i can actually get sybase dblib to work on rh ? if so i would like to explore that. my server should have sybase client installed. i dont want to break my head on DBD, its too much trouble, too many dependencies.
i tried it for sql server, finally wrote a java api and started calling that from perl, was much easier than getting dbd and dbi to work. i am trying my luck before i take the same route for sybase as well.
