Sybase-Microsoft RDBMS partnership, Microsoft has not provided UNIX
client access. Of the companies who do provide some type of UNIX client
access, I cannot say whether any are more reliable or, for that matter,
sanctioned by Microsoft. Further, I'm not certain which provide a Perl
interface, versus which would require you to write your own Perl
extension.
I wish I could be of help, but I think you're pretty stuck.
