SQL 2000 and freetds on linux

Im getting a lot of mixed opinions on this from reading in the archives
and other resources. Does ver 0.53 support clean access to microsoft SQL
2000 server? and if so which tds version is recommended?

Also is it normal that after configuring freetds as such:
./configure  --prefix=/usr/local/freetds --enable-msdblib --enable-dbmfix
--with-tdsver=7.0
and then having a successful make, if I try to do a make check to see how
well its doing, it fails all 6 tests?

I am basically trying to get freetds 0.53 working with php4.2.2 on a linux
box (kernel 2.4.19) to access SQL server 2000 on a win2k box

Thanks for all the help
