The jTDS driver that's included with OpenBD will connect to Sybase, but
you'll have to manually configure the datasource since Sybase isn't one of
the databases for which the admin console can format the JDBC URL for you.

You can either edit the XML and enter the info manually, or using the admin
console you can create a datasource of the "Other JDBC Driver" type and use
the info here to create your connection:
http://jtds.sourceforge.net/faq.html#driverImplementation

>From that it looks to me like you'd use these values:
JDBC URL:
jdbc:jtds:sybase://server:port/databasename

DRIVER CLASS:
net.sourceforge.jdbc.jtds.Driver

I don't have sybase so I can't test, but based on the URL from the jTDS site
I included above, that looks like a good starting point to me.

Hope that helps.
