I'm pretty keen to learn more about PHP4 and SQL7 connections where the web
server (apache) is on one box (or a cluster or load balanced) and the SQL7
server is on another. I would also prefer to use a TCP/IP connection string
as well. Basically we have a number of ASP sites where we wish to move
(slowly) over to PHP4 on Linux but wish to keep the SQL7 databases as is.
Any URL's, examples or other doc's would be a great help.
