Hi guys, sorry for not responding sooner, but I see that Brandon has already told you that he helped with the problem. I got so excited about it, that I forgot I even had the problem! Thanks anyways for all your suggestions, I'm pretty sure that I'll ask something else in a near future.

Did you ever get any resolution with this? I've successfully connected
from PHP to MS SQL on several different servers and I would happy to go
over it with you.

Subject: Re: [RLUG] Help with Linux
Well, I got fed up with Fedora Core 5 and since your suggestion Kyle, of
using rpms involves having Fedora Core 4, I installed this version. I
downloaded both rpms but had problems installing these packages. I got
the following error messages:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# rpm -ivh freetds-0.63-2.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libreadline.so.4 is needed by freetds-0.63-2.i386
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# rpm -ivh php-mssql-5.0.4-10.1.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
libsybdb.so.5 is needed by php-mssql-5.0.4-10.1.i386
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /]#
Do you know the correct command line to install these?

Hi Horalia,
Ok, the error messages logged are just telling us what we already know
unfortunately. MSSQL support is correctly installed so we can eliminate
that as a source of errors. The connection strings you are using look
fine however you might want to try a couple of differant things.
Currently you have:
connect = mssql_connect("10.7.122.28,1433","user","pwd");
try chaing the server to "10.7.122.28:1433" or "10.7.122.28/1433" It is
unlikely that will make a differance.
Another thing to look into is this. Are the user and password for an SQL
user account or an Windows system account? If it is a system account you
may need to change the following option in the php.ini file from off to
on.
; Use NT authentication when connecting to the server
mssql.secure_connection = Off
If none of these things solve the problem what I would recommend is
opening the event viewer on the windows server and then trying to make
your connection. If it is having authentication or connection issues on
the windows side of things due to a php misconfiguration it should be
logged in the event viewer.

Lia happens to work in my building. She'll have to confirm this for
you, but when I left, it was working. ;-)

If UNIX doesn't have the solution you have the wrong problem.
UNIX is simple, but it takes a genius to understand it's simplicity.

I'm trying to set a friend up with a dual boot box. Need Input on a
distro to set him up with. He wants to move to Linux but he needs a
fairly dummy proof distro. (he be basic toaster operator) Also thinks he
needs to be able to access some Windoze apps from the linux side....
Like that popular accounting program they like to use. I'm not up on
this as I just don't spend any time trying to do ANYTHING in windoze. I
think he needs a better mentor than me at this. I run in my little nitch
and don't get out of it much due to time constraints and such. Any
suggestions, tips, help. Anyone semi close to the Stage Coach area?
ALSO!
He is looking for someone to set up a web page for a product liquidation
business he is setting up. I told him I thought there might be someone
in the group that does that kinda work and if so could end up with a
true ANY browser is good here page. Anyway, he is looking for quotes to
that effect and maybe for hosting too.
If interested call: Paul Sampson 775-450-8243 cell. 775-629-9617

Thanks!
Bob R.
