Hello everyone -

Some important information regarding FreeTDS and MSSQL.

1. The latest download of freetds_dbd has a configuration problem when
building. It defaults to a "static" build rather than a "dynamic" build,
resulting in the DBD module not loading in Radiator. This can be fixed by
editing the file Makefile.PL and changing the following:

$LINKTYPE='dynamic';
# $LINKTYPE='static';             

2. There is a problem running stored procedures that return data in databases
such as Rodopi. This manifests itself in authentication not working
(can't return data to Radiator) and accounting working (just writes data to
the database). You will not be able to use FreeTDS with any MSSQL database (or
Sybase or similar database) that uses stored procedures.

There are new entries on the FAQ regarding these issues.

regards

Hugh
