Is there some secert handshake to get dbi to work with a microsoft sql 2000
server?
I have followed the cryptic path and dug my way into installing unixODBC and
freetds and I am able to connect to the servers with the isql command and the
datamanager.
But when i try and install the perl DBD::ODBC from cpan using perl -MCPAN -e
shell
install DBD::ODBC
i get this error ... I have since then set the ODBCHOME variable to the
/usr/local/lib/ since this is where the m$sql driver is and still when i
complie i get almost the exact same error. Both are bellow.
Please help :)

Configuring DBD::ODBC ...
>>> Remember to actually *READ* the README file!
And re-read it if you have any problems.
Using DBI 1.37 installed in
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBI
The DBD::ODBC module needs to link with an ODBC 'Driver Manager'.
(The Driver Manager, in turn, needs one or more database specific ODBC
drivers.
The DBD::ODBC module does _not_ include any ODBC drivers!)
You need to indicate where your ODBC Driver Manager is installed.
You can do this ether by setting the ODBCHOME environment variable
or by runing 'perl Makefile.PL -o odbcdir'.
If you do not have an ODBC Driver Manager you can try building
the free iODBC Driver Manager in the iodbcsrc directory.

Hmm...I cannot find an ODBC driver manager that I recognize.
...And I know about these drivers:

intersolve, iodbc, sapdb, solid, udbc, unixodbc
