People: Let's get real here.
M$ is a commercial entity that views most of it's objects and interfaces as proprietary product. Linux, PHP, and almost everything distributed under GPL is not a commercial entity, or usually has no cost associated. I've heard of Ubuntu, but I'm not sure whether it is GPL or not... which doesn't matter, because PHP is GPL... and in this case, distributed under a possible license with Ubuntu. If I remember enough of the config that you need, MS SQL can be accessed for input by ODBC... but I've never worked with an PHP/M$ $QL mix. Good luck. Suggestion: Hit Google with "PHP MS SQL". One of the articles/sites that Google finds should walk you through accessing MS SQL from PHP. I would really think that the PHP docs should have something about setting up access to MS SQL Server. > The PHP version that came with Ubuntu 6.06 Linux does not have > MS SQL compiled into it.
