I am trying to access Microsoft SQL Server 6.5 database from PHP script.

The database accepts named pipes only, not TCP/IP.

The literature does not mention such case :
- either TCP/IP is requested (with SQL Server 6.5) ;
- or SQL Server 7 is requested (with named pipes).

Does anyone know if there is a solution accepting SQL Server 6.5 and named pipes ?

    We've had some really odd behavior with SQL Server, pipes, and TCP/IP. Lot's of undocumented things, and performance isn't what you would expect. Can you just use an ODBC connection?
