There may be some confusion here. PostgreSQL is an SQL server. There
are, additionally, several interfaces included in the PostgreSQL package
which client applications on various platforms and languages need to
communicate to the PostgreSQL. One of these interfaces is the ODBC
driver library. This interface like all the other included interfaces,
is written to ONLY communicate to the PostgreSQL server.
MS distributes its own SQL Server, client side, interfaces. I'm not
sure what interfaces exist (if any), in the MS world, which will allow a
Linux box to host client programs for a MS-SQL Server.
