Greetings. I found a couple of FAQ on the Internet, and gathered enough
information in order to build a custom RPM of PHP that will include mssql
functions support. According to what I read so far, FreeTDS seams to be a
great solution to achieve this. However, I am having a great deals of
problems doing so ... FreeTDS does not seam to install itself in
/usr/local/freetds, as mentionned in the DOC, either from source, or via
the RPMs provided on freetds.org.

Compilation using this command works great : ./configure
--prefix=/usr/local --with-tdsver=4.2(or 7.0) --enable-msdblib
--enable-dbmfix --with-gnu-ld --enable-shared --enable-static, but freetds
is nowhere to be seen in /usr/local after I ran make install ...

To compile PHP with mssql support, it is said taht I need to add this
config line : --with-sybase-ct=/usr/local/freetds ... so what am I suppose
to do ? Also, what is the difference between the build options
--with-sybase et --with-sybase-ct ?

Thanks for any help.
