The extension requires the MS SQL Client Tools to be installed
on the system where PHP is installed. The Client Tools can
be installed from the MS SQL Server CD or by copying
<filename>ntwdblib.dll</filename> from
<filename>\winnt\system32</filename> on the server to
<filename>\winnt\system32</filename> on the PHP box.
Copying <filename>ntwdblib.dll</filename> will only provide access.
Configuration of the client will require installation of all the tools.

To use the MSSQL extension on Unix/Linux, you first need to build and
install the FreeTDS library. Source code and installation instructions
are available at the FreeTDS home page:
<link xlink:href="&url.freetds;">&url.freetds;</link>
</para>
<note>
<para>
In Windows, the DBLIB from Microsoft is used. Functions that return a
column name are based on the <literal>dbcolname()</literal> function
in DBLIB. DBLIB was developed for SQL Server 6.x where the max
identifier length is 30. For this reason, the maximum column length
is 30 characters. On platforms where FreeTDS is used (Linux), this is
not a problem.
