No, unfortunately, it's not possible.  You can use the Sybase database
adapter to talk to SQL Server 6.5 from Linux.  SQL Server 7 evidently
has a different wire protocol which prevents it from working against the
Sybase DA.  There is no ODBC support for Linux in Zope, and though there
have been rumblings about getting such a thing going one way or another,
nothing concrete has happened.
