Multiple methods are available to connect to Microsoft SQL
Server.
If you run Radiator on Windows, use the ODBC administration
tools and add a System DSN (data source name). Microsoft provides ODBC
support for Linux and macOS with
Microsoft ODBC Driver for SQL Server
on Linux and macOS. The driver and installation instructions are
available from the Microsoft web. For more about ODBC configuration on all
operating systems, see
Section 19.8. ODBC
To create a new
database, see goodies/sqlserver-sybaseCreate.sql
for
more information.
Configure your SQL clause like
this:
DBSource dbi:ODBC:radius
DBUsername radius
DBAuth password
If you can not use Microsoft ODBC driver,
consider DBD::Sybase with FreeTDS. Sybase and MS SQL Server have common
history and for this reason DBD::Sybase is known to work with Microsoft
SQL Server. You need to compile and link DBD::Sybase with FreeTDS
libraries. For more about DBD::Sybase, see
Section 19.9. Sybase
Yet another option is
to use the ODBC driver that comes with FreeTDS and configure Radiator to
use DBD::ODBC. For more about DBD::ODBC, see
Section 19.8. ODBC
