Very Computer

Hi
If have a SQL Server database running in a NT 4.0 server,
is there a way to access it from a Solaris 2.4 Sun server?

Any hint?

Thanks

So far I have had 2 suggestions:

1, Install NFS support on the NT machine, It seems that Chameleon NFS is
the flavour of the month. As I understand it Solaris understands NFS

2, Install Samba (SMB) support on the Unix machine, that will make unix
understand NDIS TCP/IP speak.

You need a software to conect the PC- and UNIX-world. One free way is to
use samba.

See "http://lake.canberra.edu.au/pub/samba/samba.html" and
"comp.protocols.smb" for more information.

I'm sure that the answer lies here but as it is only source code I'm not
sure how to compile it, but I'll keep trying.

My distribution of Solaris 2.5 has the "ODBC Driver Manager 2.11" on the
same CD as Wabi and CDE.  With the appropriate drivers, you should be able
to communicate with your SQL server running on your NT.
