Has anyone got a binary for the Sybase connector for NT? I want a connector to my SQL server DB that doesn't have the stupid serialize thunk in. Its lowering the performance of my web site way too much.

It think that is correct for MS SQL 6.5 but 7 uses a different method. I would Like to use Linux instead of NT for the Zope server, just because I have no Zope on NT experience or python for that matter. This does not rule out NT. However I am trying to open up the Linux front at my company and this seem to be the perfect chance, and a good hill to fight on. I have notice that most development for Zope is Linux then NT, I may be wrong but that is how I see it.

production server using Zope and Linux. The biggest problem is that we and currently moving from Sybase on HPUX to SQL7 on NT (don't say it.. please). I need to reassure them that Zope will be able to get to the SQL7 server now or sometime soon. I am going to use MySQL as the demo but they are just going to say "what about the SQL7 stuff". Any help or advice would be splendid.
First of all, doesn't SQL Server use the same protocol as Sybase but different port numbers b/c Microsoft bought SQL Server from Sybase?
Secondly, a Zope ODBC adapter is available for Win32 at: http://www.zope.org/Products/DA/ZODBCDA but I gather you are developing your site on Linux so that won't be of much help.
