i found this using search http://www.lomcn.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=53713&highlight=DBNETLIB try that. dunno if it will work on the dedi though m8. might give you some idea's i shall still look but ive always used SQL2000

EDIT: Right on your dedi can you go into your Controll Panel?
if you can do this
>Controll panel > Administrative tool's> Data Sources (ODBC) > System DSN > Add > Scroll to SQL Server > name: for your db, Server: would be (Local) normally next > then With SQL Server Authentication then put ur SA / Pass in. > then should be a scroll down pick your DB then next > then next > then test

dunno if that will work tho m8.
