Hi Jason
You can download and install FreeTDS (www.freetds.org). Then you can compule with the option
--with-sybase=/usr/local/freetds. Thsi way you get the Sybase extension and this includes aliases
for mssql_*.
Be aware the FreeTDS can be used with MSSQL server 4 and 6 and in some cases also for version 7 and
2000. These two has a bunch of new column types and features no accessable from DB-Library and
FreeTDS.
