[freetds] freetds and windows

Hmm, you know what, I don't check, since all the code in the unittests 
doesn't either, and I didn't really know what to test for to ensure the 
connection was made.

Is there an easy way to do this ?

And where should the freedts.conf file be under windows.  Perhaps it isn't 
finding it, and therefore not finding the right hostname to connect to.
