I haven't used MS SQL for several years, so I don't know about the
versions. I know there is support, but don't know the level.

It doesn't surprise me, however, that it depends on the Net Framework if
it's provided by MS. So what do they do when you access a remote server
from Linux (rhetorical question only).

Yes, anything in the 4.x version or before is past end of service. So
even if you got it and were able to get it to work, it wouldn't be
supported.

If you look around you should be able to find the source code; you might
be able to compile it into PHP 5.x. I think that would be your only
chance of getting it to work.
