Can't Install FreeTDS via Yum Package Manager – Plesk

I tried following the instructions in the article below but it says, “No package freetds available.“

http://www.hosting.com/support/linux/installing-freetds-for-linux/

This is my I/O:

[root@mydomain ~]# yum search freetds
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: mirror.web-ster.com
 * extras: mirror.beyondhosting.net
 * updates: mirrors.sonic.net
=============================== Matched: freetds ===============================
php-mssql.x86_64 : MSSQL database module for PHP
[root@mydomain ~]# yum install freetds
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: mirror.web-ster.com
 * extras: mirror.beyondhosting.net
 * updates: mirrors.sonic.net
Setting up Install Process
No package freetds available.
Error: Nothing to do

How can I install freetds? I am just trying to connect to SQL Server!

Edit:

After yum install php-mssql:

[root@mydomain ~]# yum install php-mssql
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: mirror.web-ster.com
 * extras: mirror.beyondhosting.net
 * updates: mirrors.sonic.net

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

    As adopted from Benny Hill's comment above, this is what got freetds installed for me:

    rpm -ivh ftp://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/dag/redhat/el6/en/x86_64/dag/RPMS/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm

cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi.repo

yum install freetds
yum install freetds-devel
yum install --enablerepo=remi php-mssql

    If you don’t want to use the RPM Forge packages, freetds and php-mssql are also available in EPEL.

    wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
sudo rpm -ivh epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
sudo yum install freetds freetds-devel

    Worked for me

    yum install -y https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm

    (if above doesn’t work, try to check this page https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL#Extra_Packages_for_Enterprise_Linux_.28EPEL.29)

    And then:

    yum install -y freetds freetds-devel
