Re: Connecting from Linux onto MS-SQL-Server

Did you think about using DBD::Proxy on Linux and ActivePerl +
DBI::ProxyServer + DBD::ODBC on Windows?

Costs: Zero. Source: Open. License: Artistic.

Performance: Perhaps not the fastest solution. But hey, it's free!

You may be able to get by with DBD::Sybase and FreeTDS:

Hi Alexander,

yeah that was my first idea the customer came to me but it's not
possible because the Win-Server is not under my control and the other
side is not willing to install anything onto their system.
