Script in Linux to access SQL Server

[Parth Thakker]

Hello,

I need to write a Perl script in Linux that needs to access a SQL Server DB,
hosted on a Windows server. Any suggestions? Can I use the DBI module to
achieve this? If so, what would be an appropriate driver (DBD-?) for it?

Will appreciate any help. Thanks.

For modules, please take a look at CPAN: http://search.cpan.org You
would likely have found your answer quite quickly. (DBD::Sybase)

Also, try searching the Internet for possible solutions to these types
of generic questions. Simply putting in 'perl "SQL Server"' returned a
lot of possible places to start.
