Re: Need Help for connecting MSSQL SERVER drom Linux(ubuntu)

When I needed to do this several years ago, I found Accessing Microsoft SQL Server from Linux using DBD::Sybase, which solved my problem at the time.

Note that the linked node describes how to connect to a MS-SQL server using DBD::Sybase and freetds, which may or may not be an option for you.

Cheers,
Darren

Agreed. The ODBC driver works great for connecting to Microsoft SQL Server on Windows, but on Linux the Sybase driver seems a lot more reliable. `perl -E'sub Monkey::do{say$_,for@_,do{($monkey=[caller(0)]->[3])=~s{::}{ }and$monkey}}"Monkey say"->Monkey::do'`	[reply]
