You'll need to do both. You can either get providers from Sybase (my last experience was not entirely positive... their connector consisted of an unmanaged dll and a managed wrapper that was not portable across 32/64 bit machines), or use the ones from the Mono project. I'm sure there are several other providers like DataDirect as well.

An alternative to the answer provided so far is to download and install the ODBC drivers, then lookup connecting to ODBC in C#.
