So, does anyone know much about getting rails (on Linux) to talk to mssql? There is a mssql driver, but it only works in Windows. A site said that using ODBC might be an option, but I didn''t see a specific ODBC driver for rails mentioned. The nix machine runs php and it can connect to the mssql db just fine, I don''t recall if it was using ODBC or free TDS though. I hoped rails could just use this same driver. Anyways, any advice or good articles out there to check out? Thanks! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
