MSSql - Setup with DB on different server not working

[helge]

hi,

our setup was running fine on our test system but now, at the day of launch, we've got troubles:

setup:

one webserver with windows 2003 web edition
one db server with mssql 2000

problem:

php_mssql.dll apparently needs some components (client tools) from mssql enterprise manager on the local machine
but mssql enterprise isn't installed on webserver - and can't be due to licence reasons (not allowed/possible on web edition)

therefor a DB-connection isn't possible, currently. what can we do to get phpmyfaq running on such a distributed setup?

please help!
