I have a situation where I am unable to connect to a Microsoft SQL 2005 Database from Windows Server 2003 (IIS + PHP 5.0.4). here is the code: <?php require_once 'DB.php'; $dsn = "mssql://aspj_transfer:XXXXXX@eggrs006/transfer_station"; $db = DB::connect($dsn); if (DB::isError($db)) {

Can the server you're running this on resolve eggrs006 to an IP address? If not, that's your problem. If it can then you need to check the SQL server user to make sure it can access that database from that machine. Note that it is very very very unlikely that this problem is anything to do with PHP or Pear::DB. -Stut
