I would like to manipulate an sql table via web interface in sharepoint the same way I use datasheet view for SharePoint lists. I would be interested in any kind of a non-commercial solution. Or would the only possiblity be to open the sql table in a client (ms office) app?

You can do it via BCS. Check this out : http://blog.arjanfraaij.com/2011/07/sharepoint-2010-using-bcs-with-sql.html

BCS seems not support datasheet view(sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/11158/…). What I'm after is the excel-style datasheet view where you can, for example, copy-paste cells to/from Excel multiple rows at a time. – thomius Mar 1 '12 at 12:32
