I'm at work, and I have to use SQL Server. For local development, I have SQL Server running in Windows XP in VMWare. I'm trying to use TextMate and Mac OS X for rails development and connect to SQL Server.
Has anyone tried to do this, and has it worked?
I'm running into several problems 1) I have VMWare's network settings on Correct Directly to the Physical Network. I can ping from XP to Leopard, but not vice versa. Is this a good idea? 2) I cant get OSX to communicate with SQL Server. I'm trying to follow these documents. http://wiki.rubyonrails.com/rails/pages/HowtoConnectToMicrosoftSQLServerFromRailsOnOSX
If anyone can give me some help, it would be much appreciated! Thanks.
