title: Laravel 5.3, CentOS, PHP 7 - How to connect MSSQL?
body: <p>I have a project (<code>laravel5.3, php7, centos7</code>) pulling some data from <code>MSSQL</code> (not my choice btw). So, on XAMPP I was able to get it running successfully with ease using <code>pdo_sqlsrv</code>, however thats only for windows.</p>
  
  <p>So how do I get it running on CentOS? </p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
