Seems right on both accounts. 

BTW, I'm now using FreeTDS (last week's CVS) --with-tdsver=4.2 against MSSQL 7 on Solaris 7 and everything seems to be working perfectly (apache/mod_perl/Apache::DBI/DBD::Sybase).  The only thing that suprised me was to find MSSQL errors in the apache error log, and not in the TDS log.  

Great job, guys.
