I successfully compiled PHP to connect to MS SQL 2000 this way: 1. Get "FreeTDS" (free version of Table Data Stream protocol driver) and install it. 2. Configure installed file "interfaces" (see doc of FreeTDS), you need just name your connection to SQL 3. Configure PHP with --with-sybase option, compile and install 4. Try your connection <?php if (mssql_connect("named_conn_from_interfaces_file", "user", "pass")>0) print "working!"; ?> "Adam Oliver" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... > Anybody know of a good installation description for connection PHP on linux > to MS SQL on a 2000 machine?
