Linux front-end for MS SQL

[DanC]

Can anybody point me to a linux front-end for Microsoft SQL server? I'm trying to make Linux useful at work as well as at home, and this is one of the main pieces I need. Something like the Query Analyzer that comes with MSSQL. Right now I'm using Red Hat 7.2, but I'm open to switching distros if another one can do what I need.

Thanks in advance

try using phpmyadmin. you'll need a webserver, but this shouldn't be a problem under linux ;-))

Hi,





I thought phpmyadmin was only for Mysql....





Anyway, you can use that old M$ favorite ODBC or maybe the java equivalent JDBC. See iodbc.org -->

and unixodbc.org -->

For jdbc see -->

and

Hope this helps
