I'm still trying to figure out what the missing pieces are... if anyone else
has gotten a Linux Zope talking to a Win2K SQL Server 2000, I would
appreciate some guidance.

A while back I had to do a job where I needed ODBC from Windows <-> Linux. I tried a product called iODBC and some other open-source ODBC data manager. Never could get the data manager configured.
I would suggest sticking with ODBC. Here is a earlier post on the subject that might help.
