And you have to have the Open Server libraries, which most people won't have as they are not included in the default package from Sybase.

I entered this thread a little late, but hopefully it is still active.

Have you used the FreeTDS libraries? Will they provide the functionality you need? According to the FAQ on freetds.org, libtdssrv may provide some server capabilities.

Of course, not being an Open Server programmer, I can't really evaluate whether it would be possible or not. It would sure be nice if FreeTDS developed to the point where a full Open Client/Open Server implementation were possible.
