Hi Casper

Sorry I've not been faster to respond to all your emails... I really do 
appreciate the effort you've gone to for getting this working.

I'm open to removing the enforced requirement from Riddle for a sql_host - can 
you confirm what settings an ODBC/SQL Server connection *does* need, at a 
minimum?

Also, if there's other questions you've got that haven't been answered yet, 
please let me know.

Again - Great work!
