Can we, directly from unix select and insert data in a remote mssql database?
Sorry, I can't answer that one.
if not, my second though was to put a litle python server on the server holding the mssql database, which will accept request and insert it in the database. But is that possible?
Definitely possible. You could, for example, use Pyro quite effectively for something like that.
