MS SQL blogging compatiable blogging software

[kilps]

Hi all - does anyone know of a open source/free blogging package which will use MS SQL on either php or asp?

I would rather use wordpress but cannot - google isn't helping me either

Textpattern 4.0.x requires a web server with:

* PHP 4.3+
* MySQL 3.23+
* The PHP mysql extensions
* The PHP XML extension (included by default in PHP)

Not gonna work for me I can only use MS SQL

install php & MySQL. Most freeware blog applications run on those. You'll anyway find more php blogs than asp.

Ya I know - unfortuantly installing mysql on the same windows server is classified as a 'security risk' or something along those lines ...

installing ANYTHING on windows server is a security risk...

Anyhoo, should be simple enough to convert a simple blogger to use ms sql (get the drivers, install, modify php.ini to enable libraries and go).
