[ale] Sybase and Linux

[Mir Shafiqul Islam]

Go to red hat web site first. You will need to register and then you can
download the sybase rpm from there. I have downloaded it from there and
running on two RH boxen. Works great. Only problem is everything has to be
done with command line tool 'isql'. No gui tool available. But that's fine
with me. Be prepared to browse through tons of docs unless you are
familiar with sybase.
