[freetds] FreeTDS and SQL Server using NT Authentication

Hrm, that may explain our problems.  We *do* have a firewall between our 
  freetds machine and the NT PDC.  The FreeTDS box is one of ours, the 
SQL Server is on our client's network.

We've already poked holes in the firewall for port 1433 between our 
FreeTDS server and the SQL Server, I'm assuming NT authentication will 
require additional ports?  If so which.

(Sigh) Sorry, I don't personally maintain any NT/2003 boxes so this 
wasn't immediately obvious to me.
