I started the installation of DBD::Sybase with the download provided on CPAN and when I run perl Makefile.PL it tells me "Unknown Client Library version - assuming FreeTDS." so basically he's not finding the open client library. On his README Michael Peppler tells before starting to install: > "Make sure that the SYBASE environment variable points to the Sybase > installation that you want to use for this build.

If there is a sybase.bat file, just execute it from the 'dos' window that you're doing the builds in. before starting the make process. or, what that first part is saying is... SET SYBASE=C:\OCS-12_0 (assuming thats where your ocs-12_0 folder is... adjust to suit)
