Hi, Thanks for the reply. How do you "install" libsybdb.so? I ran a find /
-name=libsybdb.so and got this:

/usr/local/src/freetds-0.51/src/dblib/.libs/libsybdb.so 

I've set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to this path, and SYBASE to
/usr/local/src/freetds-0.51. But libsybdb.so is still invisible to Apache
and PHP both.

cd freetds-0.51 
make clean 
make distclean 
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/src/freetds-0.51 --with-tdsver=7.0
--enable-msdblib
make 
make install 
make check

Make check works on M$SQL with a valid PWD.  But compiling to PHP still
fails.  Should the prefix be something other than the build dir?

Thanks!
