Installing FreeTDS #21

Closed KDGundermann closed 13 years ago

Hi Ken,

could you be a little more verbose in the README regarding which options to use for configuring FreeTDS ?

I assume the minimum option is: ./configure --with-tdsver=7.1

and you may even disable odbc, when you are only using TinyTDS on your system ./configure --with-tdsver=7.1 --disable-odbc

Technically you can install/configure FreeTDS any way you want, so we should always defer to their docs for that right? I do "recommend" in the README that you at least make sure that you have libiconv so the encodings work correctly. All else is fair game.
