Using Microsoft SQL Server with Rails on OSX or Linux

Background

I used Mac Ports for this setup so your milage may vary if you’re using something else like Homebrew. Mac Ports installs its files to /opt/local so you’ll have do some translation if you’re using something else.

My project is on Rails 2.3.x and I haven’t tried any of this with Rails 3.x so use at your own risk. Please leave feedback if you know how to getting it working on Rails 3.x setups. Thanks.
