Ok, that makes sense. It looks like iODBC is out of the picture, since it
uses binary drivers (the ones I saw are only for linux), and I'm using
OpenBSD.

The next choice is DBD:proxy, which I took a short look at. The picture is
now this:

Radius server                |Network|  SQL Server
-----------------------------|-------|--------------------------------------
----
Radiator -> DBI -> DBD:Proxy --------> DBD:Proxy -> Windows ODBC -> SQL 7
Server

Right? If this is correct, is the DBD:Proxy daemon very intensive if I chose
to run it on the SQL server, or should it be an install and use forever type
of component?

The last choice is the Sybase client client librarys. I thougt I could use
DBD:Sybase without them, but soon figured out that I couldn't. Again, I'm on
OpenBSD, and I didn't see any source distributions for the Sybase librarys,
so that looks out of the picture.

Looks like I'll be trying to get DBD:Proxy going, regardless of whether it's
easy or not. =)

Thanks for the time..
