  1. Hello Christian, if I want to install the exact version 17.10.so.1.1 on Ubuntu, how can I install that particular version? Kind regards

    1. Hi Paco, To install a specific version of SQL Server on Linux, you will have to explore the different packages on the Microsoft Package Repositories and choose the one that you need. You can check the available packages. You could also, run this command(s) to list all the available packages for the version of SQL Server on Linux that you want to install. The result of this command will depend on the version of SQL Server that you are trying to install and it is based on the repository configuration file you are using: sudo apt -a list mssql-server
