[DB-SIG] Accessing MSSQL from Python

[Marcos Sánchez Provencio]

Not very brilliant, really.

Download freeTDS (2002-09-03)
ftp://ftp.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/ALPHA/freetds/freetds-current.tgz
./configure --with-tdsver=7.0
make
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

[verify that tsql is working. Use the NT Server name as server name. I
have an interfaces file in the sybase dir, but I don't think that info
is being used]


Download Sybase module (it deserves a name, IMO)
http://object-craft.com.au/projects/sybase/download/sybase-0.35pre1.tar.gz

export SYBASE=/usr/local/freetds
python setup.py build_ext -D WANT_THREADS -D HAVE_FREETDS -U
WANT_BULKCOPY
python setup.py install

Test from python.
