 New Comment:

Copying the ntwdblib.dll is never a good option. Use the install
process on the MSSQL Server to install the Client Tools. That will
install the correct version of ntwdblib.dll and other tools that makes
it possible to use all features and gives acces to the configuration
tools.

Installing Client Tools will not install the server.

And by "does not work" I mean PHP is unable to connect to MSSQL
databases.

I mean that you have to copy the ntwdblib.dll that is on the MSSQL2000
CD. Otherwise it doesnt work.

What do you mean by "corrupted", "does not work" and "broken" ?

Description:
------------
The ntwdblib.dll that comes with PHP5 is corrupted. You must copy
ntwdblib.dll from MSSQL 2000 to the C:\windows\system32 folder or
C:\PHP folder. Otherwise MSSQL functionality is broken in PHP.
