    This README document describes how to install the Sybase Client Libraries used with the Enterprise Objects Framework Version 2.0 and OPENSTEP Release 4.1 for NT.

    These Sybase Client Libaries are not included in the EOF 2.0/OPENSTEP Enterprise 4.1 NT distribution package and are based on Sybase System10. They are compatible with Sybase System 4.x, Sybase System 10, and Sybase System 11 servers.

    The WebObjects Current Patch List, TIL article 70037 , contains information on all available patches and workarounds for all versions of WebObjects, including EOF patches. The OPENSTEP Current Patch List, TIL article 70033 , contains information on all available patches and workarounds for all versions of OPENSTEP, including EOF patches. Please read these documents if you're not sure which patches you need on your system.

    Overview



    The libraries can be downloaded from:

    ftp://ftp.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/MultiCountry/Enterprise/EOF/patches/2.0/SybaseClientLibsNT.gtar.gz

    Installing the Sybase Client Libraries on NT

    1. After copying the .gtar.gz archive onto your Windows NT 4.0 or 3.51 Machine, you should copy the tar file to a place on your machine like c:/temp. Execute the following command in a Bourne shell to extract the files from the tar file.
    <<Assuming that the file has been renamed to SybaseNT.gnutar.gz>>:

    gzip -d -c c:/temp/SybaseNT.gnutar.gz | (cd c:/; gnutar xvf -)

    Note: The OPENSTEP Enterprise 4.1 for NT includes gzip.exe and gnutar.exe.

    2. Open the "System" control panel and:

    · add C:\SQL10\DLL; to your path (in System Environment Variables)
    · set a new environment variable: Variable: SYBASE, Value: C:\SQL10

    3. In the file manager open C:\SQL10\INI\sql.ini and add an entry for your sybase server like the one in the sql.init template for SYBASE_SUN (machine name greendwarf).
