Subject: Ruby & Sybase

I'm having great difficulty migrating my ruby application from win32
to solaris 8.

On windows, I was able to install dbi and connect to our sybase db's
through dbi:odbc:sybase-ase...

I must now migrate this ruby app to a solaris 8 environment which I
have failed at miserably thus far.

I can connect to sybase from unix through isql and perl, --just not ruby..

I've tried compiling the sybse library --no luck

I've even looked into using Mats' ruby-perl module so that I could
leverage the working perl connectivity but even that doesent work...

Are there any other options???

I fear that I'm going to have to write some sort of isql std out
capture method just to talk to sybase :-(

thank you for any help you can provide.
