how to query a remote microsort sql database from AIX?

I need to query a remote microsoft database, no matter which version, from an AIX box.

Is there any free jdbc driver or something similar for AIX OS?

Thanks.

Not pretty sure work for AIX but from here you can download ODBC driver for SQL server on Linux

Hi,
Thanks for reply.

No, first link is only for Linux..

Second link it's available for an unsuported version of AIX 5.3.

Well.. It seems you can use unixODBC with FreeTDS ODBC to acess Microsoft's SQL Databases. See here:

http://www.unixodbc.org/doc/FreeTDS.html

And it's also rpms for freetds are on perzl:  http://www.perzl.org/aix/index.php?n=Main.Freetds

That sounds good ;)
