Win NT 4.0, php 4.0.6, IIS, SQL Server 7.0:
Whenever I run a mssql_query statement I either get an access violation error (when running the script from the NT server that hosts the SQL server database) or a time out when I try to run the query from another machine running win 2000. The mssql_connect statement doesn't cause a problem.
When I run the same scripts on the same machines, but using apache instead of IIS, there are no problems. The queries run fine.
No other changes made to the system except that Apache is the web server instead of IIS.
