If you'd like to stick with a well supported DBMS (from a PHP
interactivity point of view) on Solaris, take a look at using PostgreSQL
(postgresql.org, pgsql.com, postgresql.com).
If you have your heart set on using MSSQL Server, you can use FreeTDS
(freetds.org) w/ PHP to talk to MSSQL Server directly.
I've used ODBCSocketServer (odbc.sourceforge.net ... very cool project) to
talk to MSSQL Server via ODBC (with the DSN residing on the DB Server),
and it worked nicely.
