Hello;

Thank you for your prompt reply.  I tried to follow the override
instructions you provided:

CC=gcc32 LD=ld32 STRIP=strip32 ./configure <options>

I received the error 'Compiler can not create the executable' with the
following detail error in the config.log:

configure:2165: checking for gcc
configure:2191: result: gcc32
configure:2435: checking for C compiler version
configure:2438: gcc32 --version </dev/null >&5
./configure: line 1: gcc32: command not found
configure:2441: $? = 127
configure:2443: gcc32 -v </dev/null >&5
./configure: line 1: gcc32: command not found
configure:2446: $? = 127
configure:2448: gcc32 -V </dev/null >&5
./configure: line 1: gcc32: command not found
configure:2451: $? = 127

./configure: line 1: gcc32: command not found
configure:2480: $? = 127
configure: failed program was:
| /* confdefs.h.  */

When I checked for gcc32 this is what was found:

> rpm -qa | grep gcc
libgcc-3.3.3-43.41
gcc-c++-3.3.3-43.41
gcc-3.3.3-43.41 

My path is set as follows:
/usr/include:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/bin:/usr/games:/opt
/gnome/bin:opt/kde3/bin:/usr/lib/java/jre/bin

I should also note, that just executing with CC=gcc the compile works
with no errors. However I do not believe that gets me the 32 bit drivers
I need.

In addition I have two other questions:
1.  When I searched the config.log for an occurance of the override ld32
I did not see that set as a parameter within the config.log (I did see
the strip32 being set).  Should I see ld32 being set?
2.  How do I tell if the drivers compiled successfully as 32bit?

Could you offer more advice?

Thank you for your assistance!

FreeTDS can be compiled for both 32 and 64 bit. I think you are using a
64 bit system but your application is still 32 so it doesn't support 64
bit drivers. The solution is to build using some sort of cross
compiling. Usually you can use --build=<system> like
--build=i386-redhat-linux. Or you can override LD, CC, STRIP and similar
to force build process to use some commands like

CC=gcc32 LD=ld32 STRIP=strip32 ./configure <options>
