Address, syntax like
Address=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx,yyy
(yyy = port)

> - some default (like 4.2 protocol, 1433 for port and others).

Update. Rejected, can be setted with SQLSetConnectAttr.

> - BrokenDates and BrokenMoney. I'll remove. Users should use 
> protocols 7.0 and 8.0 for mssql7 (the problem happen only for 
> early mssql7 versions).
> - Authentication. There is already a MS specific parameter...
> - Domain. Accepted.
