Hi Jerry, You need to have the Client Tools for MS SQL Server installed on your PHP4 box. These tools is found on the CD, or you can just copy ntwdblib.dll fom one system to another.
The default communication protocol will be netbios, if you want to change that to tcp/ip you need to install the tools. One of the toiols is called "Client Network Utility". You can use this to specify aliases for your host names s[ your system knows the protocol to use. - Frank P.S You also need to enable the mssql extension ! > I have PHP on windows 2000 web server > I would like to remote to a MS SQL database on another web server. > I tried something like: > > <?php > $h = "server adr"; > $u = "user"; > $p = "passw"; > $b = "db"; > $connexion = mssql_connect("$h", "$u", "$p"); > mssql_select_db($b); > $sql = "select * from test"; > $result = mssql_query($sql_temp); > mssql_close($connexion); > ?> > > But it didn't work.
