Not in IC, but from Linux with Perl, yes.

You're on the right track with FreeTDS. Stick with that. Now you need to
make sure you have the DBD::Sybase module compiled against the FreeTDS
libraries. Check out this article from "Linux Journal":
http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=5732. This article saved my job
back in April. I'm still getting laid off this month though :) Oh well.

I can't help you with that. That's up to you to find out :)

After you get IC installed I think that you should just have to set the
proper DSN. I don't really know that though, just a guess.
