Hi,
I'm trying to setup moodle to authrize thru an external sql server. I'm setting up moodle on an external shared hosting. The proble is the host company is not having freetds www.freetds.com which is required in order to connect to sql server http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mssql-pconnect.php
I called our host company and they offered to install freetds but they are asking should I run them as a cgi or recompile the whole php?
My question is is there any work around for installing freetds or any other way to connect to sql server from moodle. if not what should I answer them in regards to running freetds as a cgi?
Thanks
Hmm, thanks for that ... I didn't realise freetds was required for MSSQL+PHP on Unix.

Thanks for the reply, I'll go ahead and approve the host company installation, and let's see what will come up.
