Re: [Python-sybase-misc] Python-Sybase module install questions

[Sébastien S. <sa...@us...>]

Hi "VV",

if your database server is on another computer, you still need to 
install Sybase client libraries on the client computer in order to 
compile and use python-sybase.

* the official version provided by sybase is called "open client":
http://www.sybase.com/products/allproductsa-z/softwaredeveloperkit/openclient

* there is an open source implementation called FreeTDS:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/freetds/
some people have reported that it works OK, though it may lake some 
features of the official client libraries

regards
