Hi,

And next, what is your problem. You don't tell about the problem your encounter.

I suppose that either configure or compile fail.

There are several ways connecting a unix box to a mssql server.

1 - use commercial product ODBC or TDS
2 - use free unix ODBC solution
3 - use FreeTDS
4 - use sybase open client libs

There is an article on this site that explain a little bit on FreeTDS.

If this is not your question, could you tell more.
