In my expierence you'll have much greater chance of sucess if you compile with --with-sybase-ct :)
I just used --with-sybase-ct=/usr/local - I didn't bother with --with-mssql or --with-sybase Paticulars: FreeBSD 4.5 PHP 4.2.0 FreeTDS 0.53 Of course, using this methods means you also have to use the sybase commands not the mssql commands but they're pretty much identical in function - just the names that are different.
