The FreeBSD Sybase Libraries don't work, AFAIK, I tried and it didn't work
at all. 

The freetds implementation worked fine for me, there are couple of bugs, but
it works, although I am only using it in conjunction with PHP4 and Apache.

If you need further info (and how to set it up), please have a look at
http://www.imdat.de/php/php4.html and at
http://www.imdat.de/php/sybase_php_freetds_bug.txt

I don't want to post the doc here as it's kind of long
