If the OP was actually on Windows, this would actually work.

The DLL in question *is* the compilation of mssql support, assuming it
is the same version as the php.exe (or php .dll for modules)

Correct.

The OP could use rpm and/or up2date to just get the php-mssql package
if they installed from rpm to start with.

If they compiled from source, they should be able to go back to the
source and ./configure --with-mssql=shared, and then make and then
copy the php-mssql.so file into their extensions dir.

However, it is probably easier to just do:
./config --with-mssql
make
make install
if you compiled from source in the first place.
