Hi,

Looking at the TDS protocol documentation for TDS 7.0 Login packet (MS SQL Server), I'd like to know how to tell MS SQL Server what the byte-order is for the client.

That is, if I'm on a SPARC based machine connecting to MS SQL Server using FreeTDS, which bytes in the TDS 7.0 login packet need to be set to tell MS SQL Server that I'm BIG_ENDIAN?  I think Intel machines are LITTLE_ENDIAN, thus the default for MS SQL Server is probably LITTLE_ENDIAN.
