The reply to is gone. I will have to check the build tomorrow. How can I check, just try to connect to the sql server or can I check something in the phpinfo().

Ok, I was working on this most of the day today, and there has got to be a better way.


I am converting a webapp to Mandrake 10 using php, however, it still needs to connect to the microsoft sql server. Is there an easy way to do this? Articles I have read, suggest using a piece that converts the odbc connection to xml, and using php to connect that way. I am new to linux, and I know there has to be a better way. Any suggestions?


It all depends whether MDK built PHP with freetds.  If it was, when you
should be able to access SQL Server directly from PHP like any other
database.  If not, then you will have to compile PHP yourself.  Check
http://www.freetds.org/ for more information.

BTW, you have set reply-to in your mailer which screws up replies to the
list.  Please remove it from you kmail settings.
