Hi Michael...
So far, I haven't had any luck figuring out what to do with MsSQL...the
reason is that I left where the Linux box is...China!! I WAS supposed to
install a help desk software that uses both MySQL and PHP for dynamic page
updates and other cool features, but I never got that far.
One of the "smart guys" there had a problem with understanding that I had a
99.98% hackerproof firewall installed and recommended that the group unplug
it from the 'net which defeated the purpose of it's use and functionality.
Not to mention 6 weeks of my effort (setting up 2 versions, 8 reloads, a web
server, a secure shell server, an FTP and a secure FTP server, an NMS
client, and a DHCP server for 2 ranges on 2 network cards, and of course the
firewall system with NAT-MASQing for access to the Internet). Not a little
issue to me.
Anyhow, sorry to drown you in the gory details. There's much more out there
to do for more appreciative groups than this one.
I will attempt to do a duplicate install on a laptop and see what happens,
but I expect results to vary considerably (but this is the only platform
that I have access to at the moment). However the MySQL and the PHP
information SHOULD be pretty generic, so I will let you know in a few days.
