Does version X of FreeTDS connect to version Y of my Microsoft or Sybase server?

For the last several years, every version of FreeTDS has been able to communicate with every kind of TDS server. New servers sometimes introduce new protocol features, but the changes are small, and they're always compatible with old clients. Generally, you should use the latest version of the TDS protocol for your server.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
