Martin, 

Right.  If you can get a clean installation of FreeTDS within the
package/ports system, FreeTDS is ready.  But you have might to diddle with
PHP, because it's expecting the Sybase header files in the sybase directory,
and you're using (or will be using) FreeTDS.  

See http://www.freetds.org/userguide/php.html, especially:

        Then build PHP with support for "sybase" 
        $ cd php
        $ ./configure --with-sybase=/usr/local/freetds

Let us know...

I always like to offer an especially warm greeting to anyone coming in from
the cold.  I hope you like it here.
