Subject: www-sybase access for *BSD machines ?
Date: Jan 5 1996 5:54PM

Hi all,

  We're trying to install some form of WWW-sybase access in our site.
We gave SYBPERL a try, but when talking to SYBASE about open-client
we discovered that there's not a version for NetBSD, FreeBSD or even
BSDI.

  Since our systems run NetBSD (maybe FreeBSD someday), a method which
does not require another machine/OS would be good.  A option would
be to run Solaris/x86, but this is not the preferred one.

  The question: Is there something to make this www-sybase gateway
that does not need open client or run in the *BSD world ?

  Even if we try the Solaris version, does anybody have experiences
with the x86 environment ?

  TIA,

					Jonny
