Did you check ODBC too ? iODBC, unixODBC ??
64-bit ODBC seems a bit broken... MS documentation (even from website)
is not correct and unixODBC seems to rely to SIZEOF_LONG (which can be
undefined...). However I would like to know if problem is in unixODBC or
in FreeTDS...

Same as above. I'd like to know if fail came from a core or from a
error. I hope a core (usually faster to fix :) )
Anyone know a shell tunnelling program? I would like to test freetds
using SF compile farm but there seem to be no mssql :)
