[freetds] dbi:sybase:server SQL Server connection issue servername\instancename

 Problem connecting with DBI and sql server using servername\instancename. I have had no issues connecting when the servername is used. 
Here is my connect :

$dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Sybase:server=wyn-dfwimobile2", 'userid', 'password') or die 'connect';

I log into the sql database using sql query analyzer with the userid/password with no problems.

I issue the select @@servername and get wyn-dfwimobile2\synchsql

I issue hostname from the cmd prompt and get wyn-dfwimobile2

I am unable to get the right combinations to connect to this sql server using DBI. What am I missing? 

Thanks in advance,  Kirk
