I'm having a difficult time getting DBD::Sybase to install on a Redhat 7.2
box. I've installed sysbase ASE for the CT-lib and the make goes fine when
installing the DBD::Sybase perl module up until the make test is run. Here
is where I get the following errors:
[root@localhost DBD-Sybase-0.94]# make test

It should be noted that I am trying to connect to a Windows 2000 SQL server
(I'm getting the feeling the Microsoft has changed something with this
release of SQL server which prevents connections via the Sybase module...is
this correct?? I hope not!) . In regards to the error message, I'm not
sure what it is referencing. I find the lack of documentation on the module
frustrating and to be honest, I can't believe that using perl to connect to
a MS SQL server is this difficult. I had no problem connecting to the same
sql server via php. If anyone has any experience with similar issues, or
can point me toward some decent documentation I would greatly appreciate it.
